Need some help.Is this the correct engine in an 1872? Is this the correct oil filter and would it be safe to run this tractor on inclines? Would this engine have an oil pump to pressurize the oil flow? Pictures attached. Have a great day.

Looks like the correct engine. To get oil through a filter, it will require a pump and a pressurized system - so you should be fine on a reasonable incline.

The engines that had issues were the KT’s day that splashed oil. KT-17 Was one of these. The KT-17 Series II was an upgrade with pressurized oiling. I believe the Magnum series came afterwards and were pretty good engines.

If it don't slide/roll down the hill sideways, the angle is not excessive.:beerchug:
