Well,

I drained and refilled the radiator with water....And doc the radiator drain cock was plugged.  Your compressed air tip worked like a charm...Started her up (man this tractor will NOT start when even in 50's temperature!)  and now she wont go past 150F.  So I suspect the problem was lack of coolant.  Drained it out and was like chocolate.  Going to refill it partially to get the temp up high enough to force the thermostat open so we can circulate and drain again.  The blowby doesnt seem as bad...
If its not an All-Crop, it all crap!

Like I said earlier, I would get that rad flushed and boiled out to get all of that chocolate out of there!   You might want to run the engine with some dish soap for a while to clean up the block too!
