But i am. My B ate a throwout bearing. After replacing literally every part of the engine, now all it needs is a throwout bearing, a front end, and an oil pan gasket. Yipee. After a new gasket and tons of silicon, its leaks anyway. This frustrates me to no end.
I honestally dont know why i dont park it in the barn and move on with my life, but i dont. I should call it a wash and put the engine in another tractor, but i wont. Not sure why, but something is motivating me to keep going. I dont know what, but something is. Its a really strange feeling.
So anyway....
Looks like i have to once more split the dang thing. This really sucks.
All the other times ive had to do this, ive had the engine apart and its no big deal. This one isnt apart.
How would i lift it out?? Theres the kubota with the loader on it, but where do i put the chain??
Im thinking i could remove the rebuilt rocker arms on the rebuilt head and put the really wore out, beat apart set on there. If they bend, its no big deal. But will that hold the weight of the engine?? I dont care about the old set of rockers, or the studs, but i really dont want to mess up Dick L's rebuilt head if the studs come flying out and take the threads with them, and mabey a chunk of iron too while the rest of the engine comes down on my foot.
And while were on it, any advice on that oil pan?? It diddnt leak on the last tractor it was on, the first C (thats probabally my problem) but id does leak with a ton of formagasket on there and a new gasket. Any ideas??
