Hi hdsjr, What brand tractor is it? Some have a wet sleeve design(the piston sleeves are separate units within the block and can be replaced relativly easy- it involves a major motor job, but no boring) Sometimes the o-rings that seal around the top and bottom give out and you will get water in the oil. If you do have wet sleeves, you can drop the oil pan and pressureize the radiator( CAREFUL, only maybe 5-10 lbs.). Look up past the crankshaft and you should be able to see antifreeze dripping if that is in fact the problem. I've had this problem, and though no-one will recomend it, I cured it with 2 bottles of Barsleak. It's been 4 years with no ill effects. Sorry I went on but hope this helps, good luck.
