Well ya had all the comments from everybody that think they know 706 gassers . I can tell ya that i know every nut and bolt in a 706 and tell ya what wrenches ya need to do the job. We still run 2 706 gassers and i have lost count of the ones i have bought and sold . If a 706 gasser was at a sale that i was at i owned it when the hammer went down . Dead row thru the ring i would buy them . Take them home and do what was needed to make a usable tractor . Most needed a T/A and they got a new clutch and T/A with warranty , made for a good selling point as the warranty paper work went with the tractor . As far as head cracking i have never seen a head on a C221- C301 crack , Warp yes Crack NO Did a ton of valve jobs on them replaced lots of head gskt. Each and everytime i had a head off it was checked for cracks and never a one found . Warped heads now that is another thing they all need run across the head surfacer as to how much that can vary , valve guides yep they will need them if your doing a good valve job . Ya want it to run good and stay running good then use only LOW ASH oil in it , now some of the EXPERTS will say well i run what ever it's his tractor and he is the one that foots the bill as i have been down this road . That is why i run LOW ASH NOW . We use our 706's each and everyday in all weather . The only thing that we do not do anymore is tillage work with them . Gas is another BIGGIE with them ya need a Min. of93 octane if your going to work them . IF your usen them for pulling a wagon in the local peraid then if your a cheap skate then run what ever ya want here again i really don't care. Ya may want to upgrade to the spring loaded park loc. for safety as that was one other thing i would do to any that came thru my doors . about a 165 bucks .
