Hi, so our ford 860 (or 861 it one of the two) has always smoked a little from a minor gas leak on the line coming from the gas tank, it's on my to fix list. Anyway while brush hogging the other day it started smoking a lot more and seemed to be a little overheated, so I stopped brush hogging let the tractor idle down to cool off and then shut it off. I had fill the radiator fluid almost completely full and checked the oil, so it should have been fine? Whenever I run the tractor tho it smokes pretty good and kinda appears to be coming from the side of the engine block which makes me worried I may have blown the head gasket? How do I tell? I talked with my moms cousin who is a dairy farmer, he thinks I may have been working the tractor a little to hard, which I wouldn't doubt. It's a five foot brush mower and Ethier a ford 860 or 861 again not really sure. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
