Getting water /liquid in oil bath air cleaner. Where is it coming
from? How do I fix it? No water / anti freeze getting in the
engine oil.
 
Does the tractor set outside?

If so, maybe rain is getting into the air intake hole, some part may be missing. Many old tractors never see the inside of a barn.

My old tractor has a rubber horn shaped air scoop that fits under the dash then across to the air cleaner. The hood protect it from rain water.

Has someone washed the tractor and maybe got water up in this area with a pressure hose?

How often do you have to check the oil bath for water contaminantation.

This could be a very serious problem if you were to suck water into a hot engine.

Finding the water leak should be a top priority.

Let us know what you find, or post pictures of your air cleaner.
 
Dopes your tractor look like the ones in the picture? Those are 1950 8N's. A Jubilee has an overhead valve engine, made in 1953.

Chances are the water is from condensation. But do check the gasket.

Dave, To make solving any future problems more clear, you can clarify what tractor you have, by surfing over to the "ID" section of John Smith's most excellent Ford tractor website...
