Just bought a 1975 IH 574D that splits alot of black oil from the exhaust sometimes. The sticky oil will travel down the exhaust tube and land on the fuel filters, is this engine oil? kind of smells like it when manifold gets hot enough to burn it. I have to run it hard and for a long time before it clears up. Alot of white smoke when engine is cool, some after engine warms up at idle and full throttle. Tractor runs and starts good. I did put a new thermostat, air filter and changed the oil(Rotella 15w40). The tractor has 3500hr not worked hard. Previous owner only used this tractor to putt around and clean drive way in winter for about 5 years (retired tobacco farmer). There is no coolent in the oil. Tractor did not start spitting until after i changed oil. Engine oil is below fill line, not over filled. Does this tractor need work, or should it be work hard to clear out the engine. I have only used this tractor to bale 400 bales,have run elevator to put hay and straw in barn and make some runs down the road about 5 miles. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

I was getting ready to tell you to get it out and work the bejeebers out of it, but it sounds like basically you have already done this, so I think you might want to dig a bit deeper.

Thank you for your reply. Last night I did some more straw baling, tractor ran alot better, did not slobber oil, tried to keep the rpms up. Maybe some of the diesel fuel conditioner is working its way through the system. I have a funny feeling the tractor has not been worked hard or heated up properly in a long time. Going to cut some hay tonight, hopefully tractor runs the same as it did last night. Never had this problem before with the 3020 or the B414 diesel.
