I drained the oil on my 706 with the 263 gas engine and only some water was in the pan and no coolant. That tells me I had condensation. I pressurized the radiator and the head gasket is leaking externally on the front. I put in fresh oil and ran the tractor up and down the road to warm it up and then let it set there and run.
