I have a 1967 Ford 4000, it started fine and ran for about 5 to 10 minutes, then had a light mist (or could be smoke) from front near radiator/water pump. Engine began making knocking sound, shut engine down and check oil (not milky) and opened radiator to check for coolant, it was a little foamy so I topped off radiator with about 1/2 gallon of water. Tractor started and ran but still made a bad knocking sound, no smoke what so ever from exhaust. I parked it and came back next day to try to figure out problem. Tractor would not turn over, starter would hit hard but not spin engine. Also hooked another tractor to it, put it in gear and it just slid, tires would not turn. Engine would not spin when pulled in gear.
I am trying to figure out if this is a crankshaft that is seized or what might have caused this to happen so quickly. Engine has always run like a top with no smoking.
Any ideas??
