[AT] My JD 2010

It is probably the Mechanical FUEL LIFT PUMP not the rings at all

definitely reduces oil consumption. I've never heard of it helping fuel
in the oil problem.

My concern is the fuel in the oil. Do not work your tractor very hard or
very long with fuel in the oil. 
Other ideas:
Is there a chance an injector(s) is not spraying correctly?
What kind of fuel supply pump do you have on this engine, is it one that
is driven off the cam shaft? 
Is there a chance the Injection pump is leaking fuel to the lube side of
the pump?

My JD 2010 (diesel) had an engine overhaul a couple of years ago. I 
just had a friend do some repair work replacing a hydraulic control for 
the front end loader.
While doing the work he noticed that there was some diesel fuel in the 
engine oil. He talked to a JD employed service technician and it was 
recommended to work the tractor hard to set the rings then change the 
engine oil. Any thoughts. I'm planning a session with my chisel plow 
in a hayfield that is slated to be replanted with orchardgrass for horse

hay.
BTW I trust the opinion of this friend so I'm not disputing his word 
just looking for some more information.
