Machinery Forum Water in Oil/ JD350 dozer [ Expand ] [ View Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Return to Forum ] Posted by TracyC on February 21, 2005 at 11:55:16 from (216.228.4.152): Driving down to clear a slide on the road I noticed liquid streaming down the crankcase vent tube, checked the dipstick and it was covered with watered down oil. My question is what should be my next moves. I noticed no loss of performance and may have been operating about 1/2hr. in this condition. It sits on our road/trail about 600ft. from where I could get transport. The manual lists leaking head gasket, Cylinder liner packings leaking,Cylinder block water jacket cracked and Cylinder liner cracked as possible causes. Two years ago it had a new piston and liner kit installed with the head being machined, with a new head gasket installed. How should I proceed from here? How important is it that I get the water out fast, how? Then what? It sits precariously on the side of a mountain, it is however level. Thanks for any help in advance I"m pretty new to this and appreciate any suggestions, Sincerely, Tracy Follow Ups: Re: Water in Oil/ JD350 dozer Mark 05:00:23 02/22/05 (1) Re: Re: Water in Oil/ JD350 dozer Jerry from East Iowa 07:34:26 02/22/05 (0) Post A Followup Name: E-Mail: Subject: Re: Water in Oil/ JD350 dozer Comments: Optional Link URL: Link Title: Optional Image URL: Email Notification: If you check this box, email will be sent to you whenever someone replies to this message.
