Im about to start removing the sleeves from a 123 ci, 140 tractor block. Any tips on removing the old and installing the new ones, other than having everything squeeky clean? I guess these are wet sleeves and should come out easily and then Ive heard to freeze the new ones before putting them in. Any other pointers?

Thanks,

scott#2

Make sure you clean that area thoroughly where the
old sleeve seals were installed in the block. Clean that recessed area in the block where the sleeves seat too. If you don't have a sleeve puller you can tap on them from the bottom with a piece of hard wood and a hammer that's been suggested I did it on a Farmall A. It takes very little effort to push the new sleeves into the block. Hal

Use a sleeve puller to get the old ones out. Then clean like you say use liquid soap or something to lube the o-rings being carefull not to damage them when installing the new sleeves. The sleeve will fall rite in aws it is not like a dry sleeve as the dry ones are pressed in. Dont be alarmed with the top of the new ones being able to wiggle them some after installing as the head will hold them fast. You will want to get a couple of short cap screws with a washer to hold the new ones in place when installing the pistons and rings as the drag on the new one can move the new sleeve out of the bore. I use a cap screw about 1 1/2 long with a washer to hold the sleeve. You will want to dip the new piston and rings in a container of engine oil before installing in the sleeve and lube the bearing with some assy lube that you can get at any NAPA before fastening to the crankshaft that way you have all the parts lubed good before starting as there is no way to prime the oil pump getting oil to the new parts with the sump in oil it will start pumping oil as soon as the engine turns over.

A simple block of wood and a mallet from underneath will push them out easily. The putting back in is enhanced by very clean grooves and recesses, I like a application of palmolive, or dawn dish washing soap full strength on the orings and applied to the Oring surface on the new sleeves. do not freeze them, they are not a pressed fit anywhere, it will do no good (that person was imagining dry sleeves) JimN
