hi everyone, brand new here. I have a ford 3000 tractor mid 70s model. the oil level that i thought was ok because it was touching stick was not enough considering it turned out to be one gallon low. the question is when i drove it up the hill to my house it began to smoke out of the oil filler tube at the bottom. immeadiately shut down and filled up oil ( thats how i knew how low) now when i crank it it was a little stiff to start the first time but notr now. the tractor makes a sqeek sound when i shut it off. any ideas to what i should investigate...top or bottom
