I just bought a w-9 whaich I have been working on getting up and running. When I was setting the clearance on the valve tappets, I noticed that the rocker shaft assembly was dry. When I ran the tractor with the valve cover off, no oil came up. Tonight I removed the head to see if there was a clog. What I found is that someone had filled the oil journal that comes up from the crankcase with a silver putty that contained steel fibers. I had to dill the putty out with a 1 foot long 3/8" drill bit since the putty filled the journal all the way down to the crankcase. I finally did get oil to come through the journal by turning the engine with the started motor. My question is way would anyone ever purposely fill this journal?
