It's out, took a bit of hammering and more hammering. I haven't goten a manual for the tractor yet, But I was wondering If I could get some help with some spec's. A farmal model A around a 1940-42. If thing's where all new, How wide should the piston be?? how wide should the cylinders be? In thinking that I will have to to widen the cylinder by a few thousands of an inch, take some 1000 sand paper to the piston, and get new slightly larger rings. I haven't looked into this yet If i can even get the parts or not But this is my plan so far, Is it correct? The reason I have to widen the cylinder is because it was rusted an siezed so bad there are deep pits in the walls. Id did a bad thing, I took the my dremel tool to the cylinder walls to get some of the rust off just to get that cylinder out, It was that bad. Its time this old suffering tractor got a new chance on life.
