Has anyone had enough experience with the JD619 engine to comment on why the oil would thicken after extended running. I would think that Ethlyene Glycol could do this but there should also be milk colored oil, along with water loss. Operator says that there is no water loss. I plan to buy the engine to put into a 5020. Has the 6/619 demonstrated head cracking or block cracking? I know there are other areas that could also cause the problem, but what problems as this has the 6/619 shown in the past? Thanks

I agree with your approach to determining the condition of the engine. Does anyone out there have a rebuildable 619 or have the parts to put a turbo and intercooler on a 531. Basically I'm trying to make this 5020 usable at about 200 hp.

I'd pull an oil sample and have it sent in for analysis before buying the engine, and would try to get some sort of warranty or money-back deal with it. The 6619 is a fairly solid engine, but a cracked head is a possibility, as it is on any engine that's been overheated, excessively lugged or otherwise abused. How are you defining extended running, and what oil is being used? At the very least I'd pull the pan and have a look-see before installing it, and it doesn't cost any more than a head gasket kit and some labor to pull the head and have it checked for cracks and straightness also. I agree that there should be some milky color to the oil if it's getting coolant in it, so it's hard telling what is going on. Unless you want to do any or all of the above to investigate it, I'd keep looking for a known good 6619 or buy a good core engine and rebuild it.
