Re: exhust spitting oil out after using digger
Mine started spitting oil out of every orifice including the dip stick! it turned out to be worn piston rings and valves so I had the engine overhauled. Ironically after I spent a small fortune having it done it started spitting again but only out of the exhaust. I've since found out that this is common on an overhauled old diesel engine and it needs to be worked hard under load either plough or topper. It could be that the few hours you've ran it at low revs may have glazed the bores and oil has got past? Try working it hard and see if it solves it.
