Hello all i am just looking for some advice. I got my grandpa's 1959 Farmall 340 running today it had not ran since his death in 2001. its been an expensive journey so far. It had the same gas in it from 2001 as well so i had to have the gas tank cleaned and lines cleaned the fuel line, rebuild and cleaned the carb has the started rebuilt, changed the plugs cap and wires, new battery, and put an ignition system in it since the points and condenser were junk. It runs great now fires up very quickly when you hit the started button. But now that its running every single seal and gasket on the tractor is leaking and i am just dumb founded on what i should do next. i was thinking that maybe i should have the head taken off and rebuilt and replace the head gasket first since it leaks oil, But my dad thinks i should fix all the hydraulics and the tranny seals first since the tractors at least runs. What do you guys think i should do. Bear in mind i am by no means rich an have to do things in small amounts.
