    This doesn’t look good

    Went in the barn to put the backhoe on the tractor and found a puddle of green under the 2A.

    Uh oh Jeff, not good at all. Will definitely require investigation.

    It’s been weeping a little out the side but never enough to hit the ground. This appears to be coming from the water pump. Dang thing has just been sitting and waiting for space in the shop for years. Couldn’t even get it to start after I bought it but had stuff to do on the 3A (still do).

    The original water pumps had a leather seal. They were prone to drying out that's for sure.
