Adding a LOADER to a rusty old farm tractor! PLUS oil change

This is a hands-on restoration log on a neglected late-1970s White 260 (Fiat-built) tractor, not a spec review. It covers draining water-contaminated hydraulic fluid, cleaning a reusable filter, an engine oil change with Rotella, mounting a salvaged loader and bucket, fixing reversed hydraulic lines and a cylinder leak, and fabricating a stiffened cutting edge before the first test load. Best for owners tackling their own DIY loader install or fluid revival on an old machine.
