Have you seen any bubbles in the radiator when the engine is warmed up & idling? If you do, it could be a headgasket or cracked head. You can apply 4-5 pounds of air pressure to the radiator. Remove the sparkplugs & then crank over the engine to see if coolant blows out. One of your sleeve's may have a pin hole & is leaking into the sleeve when the tractor is sitting. The seals on your sleeves are known to leak too. The coolant can then leak into the oil pan. The oil pan would need to be removed to check for this. I would drain that engine oil with the antifreeze. It will remove the oil from the bearings & cause wear. Hal PS: A new headgasket would be the easiest to repair. I would have the head magnafluxed too. Hal
