I have gotten back to the 300 and have put in the new sleeve, it was my first time doing that but it went fine from the freezer to the block with a block of wood and a hammer. The piston will be replaced with one from ebay that should be here by the end of the week. The #1 cylinder exhaust valve is stiff, I can tap it open and shut but it does not work freely. #4 both valves were stuck but i put some ATF and PB Blaster on them and now they are working fine. I am wondering what else I can do to the #1 exhaust to free it up or if it could be bent and binding for that reason. In looking over the tractor I have a couple of questions, first does the missing pin in the TA linkage affect anything since the TA lever is rusted in the forward position or is it only needed if the TA is being shifted? Second, I have been reading about the IPTO seasonal disconnect on these tractors and am thinking mine does not look right. From what I read the lever is supposed to be bolted to one of the holes and mine is not. Should I try to move it or should I just leave it how it is for now, and could this be the cause of the mysterious howling that the PO described to me? Any advice will be much appreciated. I don't need to get this tractor operational right away since I have the H for haying this summer, so it is nice to have a project that I don't have to rush. Zach
