I will going to an auction this week and there is 4010 diesel I am interested in. Already I did a walk around and checked the oil for water , and the pto for looseness and everything looks good except for some leaking of water out the weep holes which I was told is normal for a tractor this old.
My question is,,,, when I see the tractor running at the auction, how can you tellif the rings are bad?
With a gas tractor, when you see a lot of blue smoke, this is a good indication of bad rings, but diesels blow smoke naturally, so how do you know if the rings are bad?
Also, how do you know if the injector is bad?
Sorry fior the questions but I have no experience buying diesels
