Well I haven't had my backhoe very long and noticed and issue with low coolant. After checking things over, it appears to be going into the oil. The oil is a tannish milky color. I'm thinking it is a head gasket issue as the motor runs very strong and sounds great. I'm not wanting to sink a lot of money into it so I'm gonna start tearing it down this evening. Any suggestions and comments are welcome. It is a John Deere 410B.
I'm wanting to pick up a manual but they are quite expensive and appear to only come in hard copy.
Anything I should be looking for or testing before tearing into it?
If it isn't the head gasket, I may have to cut my losses, because like I said, I'm not sinking a ton of money into it.
