Tractor; 2N
Problem; Using the bush-hog for roughly an hour when I figured it was time to break for water(myself and the tractor). 30 minutes later I go out, turn the engine over and am greeted by a splash of liquid from my exhaust pipe. Turn the tractor off immediately and rush to check the oil for foam or wateryness. I couldn't tell if it was watery, but there was no foam on the dipstick.
The engine did sound almost like it was surging when I had it going. I pulled the exhaust pipe and poured out about 2 tablespoons worth of the liquid and did I visual examination of the engine; no new leaks, odd smells, holes in the block, etc.
I'm letting the motor cool for a while then I plan on going out, blipping the starter, and taking a sample of the oil to see if it separates. Any idea what else I should be looking into?
