Glad you got it going. I hope you don't regret putting high detergent oil
in it. If it has been run all it's life with non-detergent (Isuspect that
was the recommended oil when it was new) switching to high detergent might
break loose a lot of crud and sludge that could cause you some problems. I
probably would have done the same thing (high detergent). Just keep a close
eye on it and change the oil and filter frequently for a while.

Many years ago when detergent oil came out this was brought up as a possible
problem but over the years it has proven to be more myth than fact. The
newer oils are much better for your old equipment as it keeps them clean and
lubricates much better than the older single grade oils.
