PGNS: What a statment to make, just about all these old letter series Farmalls are now 50 years old and for a few of them to have some blow by would not be unnsual. Back when these tractors were new some of us were working them hard enough they required a new set of pistons and sleeves every 5 years. I know my 130 and 300 both had 4 sets of pistons and sleeves by the time they were 20 years old. Since that 130 has had one set 300 two sets. My SA on the other hand was a hobby tractor since new and I don't think it ever had pistons and sleeves and it has no blow by. It's the same with any machine, the more you use it the faster it wears out and the harder you use it will only speed process. Yes I've seen guys that didn't get any kind of milage out of an engine and you find out they changed oil every 5 years, oil bath air filter every 10, and then have the gaul to say it was a poorly designed engine. I guess likely any of these old gas Farmalls will have produced more energy in their lifetime than any two of the new ones, and probably as much as a dozen of some of them. It is obvious to me your Farmall Super A needs a rebuild and its probably no shame on tractor.
