water in oil -- 400

Got some water in the oil how would you guys find where it is coming from? Head Gasket? Cracked Head? How can you determine?

Pulling the oil pan is the first best test. If you look up in there with good light you will see at least where it it may be coming from. Look at the bottoms of each cylinder sleeve. Look where the oil drains back into the pan from the head. Putting a pressure tester on the radiator will assist (7.5 psi max)
If it seems to be on a sleeve, trying a good (Barrs Leak) or other brand, might be a temporary fix if you need the tractor.
Subaru and others use a sealant as standard coolant mix.
It does work. JimN
