The tractor is for sale and I"m trying to scrape together the money. I pulled the radiator cap and added antifreeze. There was a few black droplets showing in the top. I started it up and ran it for about 10 minutes. Checked the radiator a few days later and the whole surface showing under the cap was black. Dunked a paper towel in the hole a few times and got it back to just a few black droplets. I changed the oil and there was no coolant in the oil.

I doubt that the cooling system is pressurized - the cap had a very weak spring. The real bottom line question is - is this going to hurt anything or turn into a money pit. Can just run it like this, or will I end up rebuilding it.
