Judging from what both of you said, the near continuous problems I had with my carburetor flooding after the rebuild could account for this. I guess what I will have to do is run the tractor a bit more (after I drain, clean and flush the radiator) and then recheck the oil to see if it still smells like gas. If it does (and I know I am not flooding the carb) then I ought to look for something more serious. If not, then I am probably seeing the results of my carb problems.

Now that I can get the tractor to run for more than a few minutes at a time and also carry a load, it is overheating. Coolant looks good, so I am pretty sure there is a blockage somewhere. Hard to imagine a '44 Farmall's radiator fluid to look new after over 2 years sitting idle and no telling how long before I got it before that.
