[QUOTE="rmcva, post: 355326, member: 5473"] I've seen diesel engines have some blow by and it would stop if you put a good load on the engine and work it hard. Putting around feeding cows or light duty work isn't what diesel engines were built for. Some don't take light duty well. If your engine is strong and cranks well you might try working the snot out of it. It'll help reseat the rings. I bought a new tractor with a Perkins engine in it. Had no major tillage to do and was doing light duty work. It started to use a little oil. Since I had nothing to do at the time to load the tractor up I hooked it to a 11,000 dump truck. Got my son to ride the brake on the truck and pulled it for a mile up the road and a mile back. (had to stop and let the brakes cool off before the trip back) A white spot appeared on the top of the muffler. :lol: But the oil usage stopped right then and there. [/QUOTE]
