Gene, I have the same problem on my M as it seems to leak a few tablespoons of anti-freeze over the course of a year. I've had the tractor a little over a year and first noticed the anti-freeze when I cahanged the oil after getting it home. I've been keeping an eye on it by opening the drain plug and letting it seep out over night. I retorqued the head to 110 ft-lbs. (factory spec.) and got a 1/4 turn on several of the nuts. Don't know if that took care of it yet or not. I purchased a couple of bottles of "Bar's Leaks Radiator Stop Leak and Conditioner" yesterday. It states on the container treats up to 4 gals. The M system is a 6 gal. system and was going to put two 10 oz. bottles in it. Does all of this sound right and thought I would take it for a good drive of maybe up to an hour to really warm it up.

I'll be watching for your posts relative to this matter as it appears you are a person that has "been there - done that". Where are you located in Missouri as I live up near Rolla south of I-44? Have a good one and thanks for any information you can provide. Hal
