I was servicing my 1401 Monday and before changing oil I let the tractor run until warm. As the oil was draining I checked the radiator coolant. When I opened the cap I noticed foam. The coolant was clear with no oil and the oil did not have coolant in it. I saw no bubbles but when the tractor is running you can see the coolant circulating in the radiatir which I assume is because of the water pump. The tractor runs good but I have never seen the coolant foam in this tractor. There is no over flow in the recovery container. Do you think I have problems with the head? Thanks for any information you can give me.
