Picked up a '51 C last fall that was sitting in a barn for 3 years. Owner said it ran when he parked it. Went through everything through the winter and this spring went to fire it up, started right up but the head gasket leaked bad. Changed the head gasket, anti freeze and oil. Tractor starts and runs good but smokes out of the exhaust pipe. Makes a good fumigator. Just wondering where to start. My buddy asked if I did anything with the head when it was off, he thought I should of gone through the valves since it sat so long. Any ideas? Also, a previous post to use Hytran oil in the hydraulics, I changed it and went with 10wt just like the manual said. OK?
