big smoke big trouble

Hello everyone,
First of all thanks for the replies from my last
post. I put kits in the cylinders and it fixed them right up. Now
for some really bad news. I ran my tractor for a total of about
3hrs today and all of a sudden It started skipping and pouring
smoke from the exhaust pipe. I cut it off and started checking.
I pulled my dip stick and oil gushed out the dip stick tube.
I don't mean a little I mean alot. I pulled the radiator cap and I
was low on coolant(all had been checked before using). I never
saw any signs of overheating and I didn't run the tractor very
hard while using. I got the tractor back home and drained what
oil was still in the pan(2.5gallons of liquid). I filled the radiator
back with coolant and cranked the tractor. It fires right up doesn't
skip and doesn't smoke. I ran it for a while and didn't see any
bubbles in the radiator like a compression loss. I am really
confused and even more discouraged. The only other thing I can
think of is fuel in the oil? What do I do next and where do I go
for parts when I need them? I know this is lengthy but I figure
the more info the better. Thanks again for the prior help and
the help to come.
Tim
