Farmall A head gasket-more questions

Posted by fleet30 on December 22, 2004 at 07:20:16 from (63.25.98.130):

Thanks to everyone that answered my previous forum question about the head gasket leaking oil.
I've noticed that the gasket leaks mostly on the
right side of the head when the engine is hot.
also, someone mentioned that the head should be retightened when the engine is hot, will this help. When I replaced the gasket ,I had the head resurfaced and I cleaned the engine block surface the best that I could.
I also used some copper sealer. I guess I will end up taking the head back off and putting on a new gasket. I sure don't look forward to doing that but I don't want it to leak either. Who sells a good quality head gasket? Maybe the one I used wasn't a good quality one. Thanks to all you tractor guys for your help...Mike
