This is a weekend tractor. or a once a month tractor because i got too much else going on. And it's kinda rough but it runs great.
here's my problem. I am guessing the cylinder sleeves are leaking but only in the winter. in the summer they don't leak. i just open the oil plug and let about two ounces of water out. I run this redline water wetter for corrosion but don't want any anti-freeze in the oil. I'm in texas and once or twice a year we'll have a high of 39-40 then 32 at 7pm 24 at 3am 33 and going up after that.
It hasn't froze yet and i don't think i have to worry until we get 24 hours below freezing and then below 25.
will be sick if she freezes, but i'm in a tight spot with the anti-freeze. i guess i could drain the anti-freeze between uses in the winter?
