Good evening everyone, I recently purchased a 1963 MF 65 industrial loader tractor with the Perkins 4-203 diesel engine. The older gentleman who sold it to me was in poor health and could no longer get down to work on it. He was told it needed a new water pump and fuel filters by the previous owner. He had it delivered to his house on a rollback and installed a new water pump and hoses. He routed the lower hose wrong and the fan belt wore a hole in it and he took it back off. I started it and drove it onto and off the trailer full of oil but without water. I didn’t run it for more than 2 minutes each time with a 3 hour haul in between. When it was idling, it sounded like either a rod was knocking or an injector was hammering, however when I revved it up the noise quit. It was blowing bluish-white smoke the entire time. I just installed the new lower hose this evening and when I started filling the radiator, water started coming out of the exhaust. I pulled the dipstick and the oil is not over full or milky, granted I didn’t attempt to start it. I’m guessing either a bad head gasket, cracked head, cracked block, or bad piston sleeve. It will be a couple weeks before I can drop the loader and pull it into my shop and tear into it to see. I was wondering if any of y’all had any insight as to the most likely issue. Is there any possibility that he installed the water pump wrong or left out a gasket or something that would allow water to flow directly from the water pump into the exhaust? I will greatly appreciate any information. Thank you.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
