How often do you use oil in a ford 9N?
I have a 1942 Ford 9N that I’ve had for about 4 months now. I’ve noticed that it’s been using a lot of oil, maybe 1 qt every 3 weeks when running about 8 hours per week give or take. Initially I attributed it to burning it up because the exhaust was leaving black residue on all of my attachments.

Most (if not ALL) of the replacement “MADE IN CHINA” radiators do not fit right. Look for signs of antifreeze in the oil. A little clear water when you drain the oil, is probably just condensation.

What happens when you drain the oil in a tractor?
A little clear water when you drain the oil, is probably just condensation. Obvious antifreeze colors, smell, or chocolate milk in the crankcase mean you have a bad head gasket (we hope), cracked head (worse), or a cracked block (very bad).
