[Farmall] Int. 184 overhaul - a mystery

[Mike Sloane]

Yes, John, it is the same C-60 engine as the Cub with very slight 
modifications to get it to put out 20 hp at 2200 RPM. The oil pump is at 
the front of the engine and the oil pressure control valve is at the 
front side, under the governor housing. The valve consists of a simple 
compression spring with a metal tip pressing against a hole in the oil 
line. When the pressure exceeds the factory spec, the oil pushes past 
the tip and drains back into the sump. It is accessed by removing a 
large hex cap that I will remove when I resume my tractor activities 
this afternoon. See page 12-19 of the Farmall Cub parts manual or page 
12-14 of the 154/184/185 Loboy manual.
