Dear Farmall Gurus,
I was driving my 45 A today when she started smoking more than usual (white-blue).
The oil pressure was very low, although not in the red and when I stopped I noticed oil dribbling from some of the spark plugs.
What happened and what to do?
Thanks in advance.

Barry,
The low oil pressure reading must be coming from the engine being on the warm side. You are not running a multi viscosity oil are you? Either you had been working the tractor hard or it was over heating. As the oil thinned with the heat, the valve guides were letting more than normal oil leak down the valve stems. Additionally more oil may have gotten by the rings. You will want to determine that the white smoke is not from coolant getting into the combustion chambers. Are any of the bolts on the manifold wet with oil or is oil weeping from the gasket at the manifold? This would be unburned oil that would run down the exhaust valve stem and get blown into the exhaust.
