I HAVE A 59 CUB THAT RUNS VERY GOOD, BUT THE EXHAUST RUNS UNDERNEATH THE TRACTOR. I WANTED IT TO GO UP THROUGH THE HOOD WITH A STACK. I REENGINEERED THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND CUT A HOLE THRU THE HOOD FOR THE STACK AND I RAN OUT OF TIME. I COVERED THE TRACTOR WITH A TARP. A STORM CAME UP AND BLEW THE TARP OFF. NEXT MORNING I RECOVERED THE TRACTOR. SIX MONTHS LATER I PUT A STACK ON AND TRIED TO CRANK IT UP BUT IT WILL NOT CRANK. I THOUGHT WATER MIGHT HAVE GOT IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND POSSIBILY RUSTED THE VALVES. I PULLED THE VALVE INSPECTION PLATE AND SURE ENOUGH I'VE GOT STUCK VALVES. I PULLED THE HEAD OFF AND EVERY THING LOOKS OK, AND YOU CAN SEE SOME RUST AROUND VALVES. I THINK ALL THEY NEED IS SEATING PROPERLY. I WOULD LIKE TO DO THIS JOB MYSELF IF POSSIBLE. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER. I'VE BUILD CAR ENGINES BEFORE BUT THIS IS MY FIRST TRACTOR.
