1940 farmall model A

Posted by Dane Shidler on February 25, 2002 at 09:10:09 from (209.241.131.252):

I have a question about a tractor I just
started working on-
the problem I am having is with water mixing with the oil-- this tractor sat outside for about 10
years-- when I got it, it had no water in it
cap was gone and the drain plug was gone.
I have replaced the head gasket and tried pulling the oil pan and pressurizing the block to see where the leak is comming from-- no luck.
I let the head off and filled the block up with
water still no leaks (after about 1week)
I had the tractor running and everything else seems to work fine-- I would love to restore this tractor, BUT I do not want to spend alot more time on it, if it is a lost cause--
can someone give me some help--
how can I be sure the block is cracked ??
thanks
