Have a Timber Jack 205 log skidder that I use during the winter months. It has a Ford diesel motor, was told the same one that is in a Fordson Super Major tractor. Brother was using it last spring and the engine lost almost all power and started dumping oil out the breather tube. Quite a bit of oil. He shut it down right away, and it has sat since.

I never knew it had a decompression on it, but I found a lever that appears to be just that. If that could have somehow gotten moved to the decompress position would that have caused it to puke the engine oil out?

Would like to find someplace cheaper if possible.
