I have a 1066 with about 6000 hours that is my main source of horse power around here. Over the past year a few problems have cropped up. In the spring of this year while pulling a 15 foot no- till grain drill, I noticed a blue tinge and the smell of oil in the exhaust. This issue seemed to be sporadic as it was not present all the time. Also noticed the oil in the crank case seemed to be thinner that usual (fuel I'm assuming no evidence of coolant loss) and there seemed to be more blow- by than normal also sporadic. This fall while hauling wagons to the grain elevator I could hear a very noticeable tick when the engine was cold that would almost go away as it warmed up to operating temp. This tick is most noticeable near the valve cover RH side toward the rear. I've had much advice regarding the matter ranging from simple valve adjustment and injector pump rebuild to a complete engine overhaul or crate engine. At this time I'm not sure exactly how to proceed. If an overhaul is imminent what is your opinion of Case IH crate engines. I have read this forum for many years and know there are many of you out there with lots of experience with this engine and am confident I will receive some good advice.
I purchased the tractor used back in the mid 80's and to my knowledge engine is untouched. I am unable to do the work myself due to lack of shop equipment, time and of coarse knowledge. I am prepared to spend the money (if needed) to make it right the first time. I only work 200 acres and pull 18' equipment and occasionally 5-14" plow. TA is relatively fresh and new tires. Thanks Rich
