My 826 slobbers like that too.I thought I had an injection
problem, but at work (an 8-shank chisel plow), it uses just a
skosh over 4GPM, so I don't think it has too many iisues. No
slobber when it's good and hot. I never let it idle below 1000
rpms when not fully heated up and try not to let it idle for long
periods at all, excopt on a cooldown after a hard pull. Put it to
work as soon as possible and give it a "dynamic warmup." Use
your block heater on cold days. Shut down when not at work,
even if for just 10 minutes or so.

In addition to adjusting the TA linkage, adjust the clutch and
dump valve. Make sure your hyd fluid is topped up. The Tractor
Vet and KB-826 would probably also tell you to check hydraulic
pressures. These two guys have helped me a lot on 826 info, so
stay tuned for their chime-in on this. If you don't have a manual
set order today or they'll bust your chops.

FWIW, even though my 826 has 8000+ hours, I really like it. It's
amazingly fuel efficient for its power output.
