Some of the below is a bit strange to me, ethylene Glycol and sugar aren,t reasonable. Take off the valve cover. Remove the rocker arm system to allow bo the valves in both cylinders to close. (If they wont close, spray the stem with PB Blaster and tap it with a plastic faced hammer to get it unstuck. With the valved shut, filling the cylinders is easier. I would pull the sparkplugs and blow out any water or trash with air. (if a bunch of rusty flakes come out, I would just pull the enging down, it will not be an easy fix.) then with clean cylinders, I would put the plugs back in, and use Auto trans fluid to fill the intake system, and exhaust system manifolds. Then open one of the valves on each cylinder letting fluid into the cylinder. This should be able to be done with a flatbar, and a bit of chain. Keep filling the manifold until the level is above the cylinder. Let it set for two weeks. Pull the plugs, and use the starter to bump the engine. repeated taps on the starter is best, holding it does nothing but heat the starter motor. Good luck, JimN

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
