I got my 1586 last year and used her this year - been my dream tractor since I was 5 - posted last year about how it slobbers from the exhaust and the blowby tube an oily substance - from the exhaust only before you load her up - starts pretty good down to 35 without plugging in oil pressure sits right in the middle of the guage. Was told my injectors are worn causing the slobber out exhaust - I"m thinking of replacing them - should I pull the head and have them look that over too, thinking maybe the valve guides may be worn. When pulling it doesnt use much oil - so I"m thinking the injectors might do it.
Last year it did get pulled pretty hard on the chisel so I'd think it would have cleaned her up - gonna plant with her to this year so I cant really afford a breakdown but dont want to spend a fortune.
 
It only takes an hour of intermittent running with out working hard to make it start the slobbering. it is water condensation and carbon black particles, not really oil. If it were it would be smoking grey/blue out the stack under load. The tractor is probably fine. If you runn it like a gas utility, it will be dirty and speckle itself and you. I would just work it.

Friend overhauled a 986, everything was rebuilt to IH specs and if it sits and idles even for a few minutes it will start to slobber. If it is not burning oil and has plenty of power I would not worry about it.
 
Those tractors are made to work and they just arent made to idle except during warmup, much different than large trucks that people leave running at idle while they sleep or in cold weather.
