I have new holland lx885 turbo skid steer, one day working the engine overheated with out warning, after inspection found water mixed with the engine oil, ordered new gaskets and sent the head to get checked, the head came back with no problems, reassembled engine, replaced thermostat, and checked water pump, after assembly loader started just fine, after running for a while turned off engine to check fluids, found oil full of water again. Any other ideas of where the water could be coming from.?
When you say "full of water" do you mean coolant in the oil? Do you know what engine is used in this machine? Is this a wet sleeve engine? Is there signs of oil in the radiator? Would not expect coolant in oil from a failed oil cooler as oil pressure should be higher, although if this was happening while parked that could happen. Can you remove oil pan while engine is in machine? to see if you can see where the oil is coming from. How hard to pull engine so you could drop pan? How about drain oil then fill radiator and watch to see if any water comes out the drain plug hole? Maybe pull valve cover to see if any thing can be seen there? Full of questions arn't I
If that is like my lx665 it has coolant going to the oil filter, I'm not sure if it is to warm the oil in cold weather or to cool it it warm weather but there are hoses attached to the base of the filter. If there were a crack or other failure there it could leak into the engine.
It does have it, I removed it and installed the oil filter directly to the block, changed the oil ran it again and still happening.
IIRC that motor is kind of just half of the 6 cyl NH used in the Genesis tractors. Somewhat at least, they share a lot of parts. IIRC it is wet sleeve so you need to drop the pan and pressurize cooling system them watch for the leaking liner.
