      I think something was going on with the site I was getting page not found error like it did not exist, but it looks ok now.

        I think that the Chinese tractors dipsticks are designed to be read with the stick not being screwed in and if it reads on the bottom mark mid axle I would go with that.

          if it starts well in cold weather I do not think I would fool with a compression test it has to be good enough or it would not start easy, unless you want it for a future reference , which is not a bad thing to have.

            if the tractor starts well in cold weather it is not the rings, I would not think, does the tractor injector pump have its own oil sump or is it lubed with the engine oil ?   I assume you smelled the engine oil and it smells like diesel and it is real thin. but there are tractors that have issues with putting hydro oil in the engine.

              as I clicked off on that I do not  know if I have ever seen a low oil mark on a axle, but that does not mean that is not exactly what you have. That is one thing about weep holes no confusion in translation.

                I was just thinking why would a front axle have two oil marks? If you can get a flashlight and see in there all that would be required would there to be oil on the axle half way . I believe that you would not want to cover the axle, lets see what other opinions come in. Overfilling may make even good seals leak depending on design.

                  each one of these tractors seem to be just a little bit different , but just follow the flow of fuel from the tank to the pump. If you have a bowl that was full of junk then you should replace the filter past it if there is one, there also could be a screen in a fitting that you would not think there would be one. surprise surprise what is that there for? isn’t a screen in the tank , sediment  bowl and  a  fuel filter enough?  keep a eye on the sediment bowl it will tell you a lot about the condition of your fuel. removal of as much air out of the fuel system as possible will make restarting easier.

                    I have heard of hydro oil being pushed out vent tube on some models maybe you should clean it off and then see exactly where it is coming from.  I believe that most tractors suggest that all hydro systems be placed in the fully down position when checking fluid levels . some dipsticks have two marks on them the lower one for tractors without fel  the higher one with fel. Your tractor mech. that will be doing the clutch should help you out.

                        I have a quanchi engine a 495 I think. it has neither a glow plugs or manifold heater it starts at 20 degrees no problem. but that is not your engine. maybe it was disconnected because somebody did not know what it is or seen that it was creating a big draw on the battery and alt. and thought it was bad. I kinda find it curious that it has both unless the relay puts fuel in the system then the glow plugs light it off ,but then why would it need to be rated a 90 amps ? do you think maybe the relay heater kinda preheats the fuel for the glow plugs. I will be watching this post.
