The 1066 has been "making oil" this year, about a quart during spring tillage and about half a quart during fall chopping.
Dad figured coolant was getting into the oil. So first question:
1. How much coolant can get into the oil before the tractor spins a bearing?
The good news is, he dumped the oil before corn chopping and there was NO WATER. I figure the injection pump front seal is leaking and putting fuel in the oil. This brings up the second question:
2. How can you tell that there's fuel in the oil?
To me the oil on all the diesel tractors smells has a tinge of diesel fuel smell to it.
