Hello to all.
I have a Cockshutt 1800,6cyl 283 gas tractor that has developed a coolant leak into the oil.The oil is milky looking.I changed oil and filter,and within approx. an hourI checked it again,guess what, milky oil.Parked tractor in the shed over night and drained oil the next day.Thought by sitting overnight coolant and oil may seperate,however when we drained it we didn't notice anycoolant draining out before the oil.We dropped the pan and pressurized the system to about 15 lbs.which is more than likely double what the normal would be,and can see nothing dripping from around the sleeves.By the way,this engine when running,runsgood,smooth and there's no white smoke like you may expect if it was leaking from the top end.I'm kinda scratching my head now wondering where to go next.Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful.Thanks in advance.
