Ok, so, I'm like a new dad and every funny noise the baby makes worries me. Only this baby was abused for 25 years, so ... I am justified!
First, it smells funny. I couldn't place it, but is it possible that the diesel has gone bad? Old fuel?
Oil looks fine, probably needs to be changed. Transmission fluid looks new.
Smoke, light, but there is smoke coming out of the draft tube. Normal?
Second, isnt there supposed to be a bolt here? Of course I CAREFULLY stick my finger in the hole when its running, and yes, something is spinning in there. Why no bolt? Looks like it hasn't had one since it was painted. That is me sitting behind front axle, looking forward to the front axle.
