I am seeing a little bit of oil in the radiator every time I top it off. Tractor runs fine all day and I did not see anything but oil when I did an oil change. If I understand right, the places to check are the oil cooler, head gasket, and liners. Am I missing anything?
I wanted to start with the oil cooler since that seems like the cheapest/easiest place to start. I have read people using air pressure to test them, what to people use to rig this up? I was thinking to just remove it from the engine and leave it connected to the cooling system and then get a coolant pressure tester to look for coolant coming out of it. This would help me find any other leaks. Any reason not to do it this way? Does anyone know if I need a special adapter to fit the radiator or do the automotive ones work?
If that checks out, whats the next easiest thing to check? Thanks
