Hi All,
I have an old B6000. She has been a great tractor but she seems very sick. It has been hard to start for quite a while. Lots of blue smoke, only firing on one cylinder after long preheat (even in summer). I went out to start the other day and she coughed up a lot of liquid from the exhaust. Liguid is dark color, probably diesel and maybe oil. I shut her down right away.
Any thoughts on where to start to diagnose? If she will run, is it safe to keep her going? I'd hate to cause more damage than may already be there.
I'm thinking it might be an injector issue but that is beyond my knowledge base.
Any comments welcome
Thanks, Todd
