Hey guys,
Dont post on here much as its been winter and havent been using the machine. long story but please bare with me as I could use some help!
Its my dads machine- AC HD7GB, has the 6 cylinder turbo diesel engine. We have been battling an oil leak for quite some time. we had thought it was the oil pan- leaking so much oil its covering the radiator/fan shroud. replaced pan gasket twice, no luck. oil seems to be coming from the front of motor, dad says around the damper area, any ideas on this?
Second big thing- we got the machine stuck in the mud, sunk in good and deep. took two days to get it out. While getting it out, it did start to overheat a few times, but my dad would immediately shut it down when he noticed it. he got it out by going down a large hill, busted off the stack and broke two windows- machine seemed to run fine afterwards though. Dad parked it to try to fix the oil leak for the 2nd time, puts pan back on, start using it. Now here is the issue- we are building a road, and hauling dirt, we go get a bucket of dirt, drive up a hill approx 300 ft ill say, and the machine will sometimes stall out at the top. Also the exhaust seems to have a different "note" to it.
The machine never stalled like this prior to getting it stuck, so did we do damage to it? any ideas where we should start looking?

I've heard the arguments for non-detergent oils but would never trade it for today's formulations. Paint is another, the modern acrylic enamels are great for resistance to grease and fuel stains, retaining their shine and they last forever; unlike enamels and lacquers . Still another is the alternator. No doubt using the original generator keeps the tractor pure, but for thos
