Thank you very much to all of you who've helped me with my H. I took the head and gasket down to our local independent tractor dealer/repairman and he checked the head with a straightedge and said it was a little warped but not badly and that he'd try putting it back on. I put a NAPA thermostat in the housing and put that together, put copper coat on the head gasket and put everything together again. At first it didn't have any compression because I forgot to adjust the valves, but after I did it started. The thermostat is working, and when it got up to 150 or so it let the water flow. I put the funny tester back on the radiator and this time I could use it because there were no bubbles coming out. The liquid stayed blue, so I think everything is okay now. I retorqued the head and will check it again in the morning when it is cold before I put on the rocker shaft. I am very grateful to all of you on here who are kind enough to share your expertise with those of us who are new to this. Zach
