A year after a complete rebuild of the motor on my F-12 one of the sleeves decides it's no longer going to seal up. I've run the tractor a lot. Check the oil frequently. There's a few small oil leaks here and there and last week I noticed how milky it was. Dropped the pan and see #3 is seeping at a few different places.
Any of you guys have a suggestion on a quick temporary fix to slow it down? I will for sure tear it down soon and do this right but I was really planning to use the tractor in a couple weeks for a hayride.
I know the old egg white trick. Black pepper. With this bring a non-pressurized thermosiphon system will either of those old school methods work? I thought about draining the system. Unhooking the radiator and finding a way to circulate some sort of stop leak through the motor.
