This third shot is what can happen when someone doesn't take proper care of a cooling system. This is the cylinder sleeve that "ate" my engine. You can see the rusty holes (looks like a series of dots) along the point where the bottom of the sleeve meets the block. (The sleeve is pictured upside down)
I bought this tractor from a doctor that used it on his small horse farm. It had less than 1400 hours when I bought it. I got it CHEAP. No wonder. It lost 2 gallons of coolant, into the crankcase, just loading, and unloading it from the trailer, when I hauled it home.
It had never had the cooling system serviced properly. It now has a completely rebuilt engine. Deere doesn't recommend using Coolant treatment if the filter system is used.
I hope this answers the questions about how to install the filter kit. Let me know if I can assist anymore. John
