About 8 years ago we sold our family farm to the man who had rented the ground for 20 years or more. I help him out when I can, though my health is getting worse, and it is becoming less and less I can help. 2 days ago I was using his 444 with a 6 foot pull type bush hog to clip light weeds in a pasture, and after it ran for half an hour or so, maybe a little more I noticed that I seemed to be getting a lot more heat coming back off the engine than I expected, though the heat gauge was staying in the middle. I noticed the oil pressure was running low, only about 10 psi or so at half throttle which is what I was mowing at. I drove it 1/2 mile back to my place and when I shut it down I could hear what sounded like boiling, but when I checked it was not coming from the radiator (yes, I took precautions removing the cap), but apparently was coming from the oil filler which comes out the top of the valve cover. Could not hear it at the dipstick though. Last summer it bent one push rod, and bent another, both on the same cylinder, but I cannot think of anything related. The owner is not much on maintenance unfortunately. Can anyone give me a startign point on this problem, I am pretty familiar with an H and cub, but a 444 is new to me.
Thanks
