I bought a tractor to restore. It'll be used a little,but mostly a trailer queen. It had been leaking coollant in to the oil. I pulled the sleeves and the block is pitted a little more than I'm comfortable with. I know some pullers use some kind of cement in the blocks when they bore them real thin. Is there anything that anybody knows of that could be poured in the bottom of the block,say maybe a quarter to a half inch thick while the head is off,to help seal the o-rings on the sleeves? Something like a liquid silicone that would gel up or something like that? Been thinking about running a ring of silicone around the top o-ring before I soap them up to put them in,but a pour in liquid that would set up would be a better option.
If it was something that I was going to use more,I know you can get them machined and get a bushing put in,but I don't want to go that far with this one.
