Perkins expert needed

Posted by Robert J Spence on June 30, 2001 at 14:45:17 from (216.209.110.142):

I am breaking in a new (not re-built) Perkins 3013 25 hp. diesel and am expieriencing a problem.
The engine had 4 hours on it when I bought it and the oil already looked dirty.
I changed the oil at 16 hours because it was so dirty and now at 26 hours it is dirty again.
On a cold start it needs glow plugs and seems to run on 2 cylinders instead of 3 for a minute or so.
Any ideas?
