Hi, I am looking for some experienced info for my maiden voyage into engine rebuilding. I had one cylinder in my tractor that progressively fouled the sparked plug from every 12 hours down to every three hours. Then I lost intake on this cylinder. As you probably know a 5 cylinder 656 is pretty much worthless. I have just taken the head off the tractor and found a small chip off the edge of the intake valve. So I know I have one cylinder with a oil control problem and a bad valve. From here where do I go? Do I just order the in frame piston and sleeve kit and the valve kit or go with the everything kit and remove the engine. If I do the in frame rebuild how do I get the sleeves out and new ones in? Which way do I manually turn the crank to get access to all the rod caps? Anything else someone might add would be appreciated. By the way what is a good manual for information on proper torquing, break-in etc? Thanks for any help Scott
