NCMT | Hello guys, I have a 2011 case ih steiger with a 12.9 iveco. So I stopped for dinner one day and left my tractor running, and when I came back engine temp had gone up to 210 degrees. I throttled it up a bit and let it cool off figured radiator was dusty,since I had been seeding in very dusty conditions. So I blew it out and cleaned it up. Went back seeding and finished day off with no more problems. Also checked coolant in overflow, was at appropriate level. So the next day I started tractor, let it warm up and seeded maybe 200 feet and temp was on 220 and rising rapidly, before I knew it it was on 230 degrees and tractor shut itself down. There were 7 gal. of coolant missing, it didn't suck coolant out of recovery tank so I didn't notice there was coolant missing. I replaced radiator cap and that fixed that issue. I noticed water pump leaking, replaced water pump and figured all that coolant had gone out on water pump weep hole and I hadn't noticed. So I did oil change and sent of oil sample and it showed alot of water, copper, & lead in oil, even though i checked oil level every day I didn't notice any difference at all. I've been seeding a couple off days now and so far I've had to add 4 gallons of coolant without any visible leaks or changes in oil level. Any idea what could be causing this....... what's your thoughts ?
