Mac DeBusk said: (quoted from post at 14:40:02 04/22/09) I've been working on an old IH Utility 340 gasoline, and I just finished rebuilding the engine where it threw a rod. Part of the job was removing and reinstalling the piston sleeves. Now my number 2 sleeve leaks water. There's no gasket or seal at the bottom of the sleeve. How do I fix the leak?
When you rebuilt the engine did you buy an overhaul kit? If so the new kit should have had new O-rings included. The o-ring can be hard to see in low light but if you shine a flashlight down in there you will see the o- ring located where the bottom of the sleeve slides into the block. The o-ring is located in a groove in the block (like stated) and not on the sleeve. The o-ring is probably 1/4" or so thick and will be mashed flat in the groove.
