Based on your guidance, yesterday I checked the oil, it was actually over-filled, but the oil on the dipstick was very clean. Checked the coolant, it was full. I started up the engine and oil again was "pouring" out the breather cap, I did not turn it off immediately and it stopped after about 10 seconds. I increased the throttle and the oil started leaking out again so I took it back to idle and let it run about 15 min. Engine was running very smoothly. I again increased the throttle and it was much less oil but it still leaked out. I let it run another 15 min and repeated and at the same higher RPM now the oil stopped. I got the tractor out and ran it around a while moving a trailer and a plow, all together it ran for 45 min or so. I shut it down and checked the oil again. Still just above the full mark, oil very clean. Then I took the bucket I used to collect the spilled "liquid", and instead of immediately putting it in containers for re-cycle, I took it out in the bright sun and examined it, it was hardly oil. It had the consistency if iced tea but was much darker. It was about 1/2 a quart and I would say 80% water. The tractor sat overnight and this morning there was not a single drop of oil on the floor under it. In the future I will make sure whenever I start the engine that I do some work with it and let it get up to operating temperature.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
