I traded in a 656 last summer and bought an 826 thinking i had a REAL upgrade...i guess i was wrong. The tractor had previous work done like rebuilt pump,bottem end rebuild. Plus i put new tires on it, rebuilt the hydraulics, and some other minor stuff.. Now its getting water in the oil and i'm wondering if theres any easy way to check what the problem is without pulling the head.. If its just a head gasket i can handle that, but if its gonna be somethinng major i just can't afford that and would rather sell it as-is.. The tractor runs and sounds fine, has a little blowby comming out of the breather though. I pulled the radiator cap off and it was low, so i added and let it run a while with the cap off and it didn't bubble/boil over, so i dunno??
