Yes it has a lot of head bolts. I was thinking about it more and I think it's block heater related. It's only a 500 watt block heater and I haven't needed to use it for at least 5 or 6 years. I plugged it in and went to check on it because I noticed the breaker tripped, after an hour or so, that it was plugged into. There was snow on the top of the engine that was gone but the block didn't seem warm. The first time I tried to rest the breaker it tripped again. I thought it was the cord I used because the male plug is corroded a bit. I unplugged it and put it back in. Then I reset the breaker and it stayed on. When it started the engine did get warm, I felt hot coolant leaking when it was running. It didn't start steaming until I revved it up. I'm wondering if the block heater burned/shorted out and somehow the block heater seal is leaking enough to steam which would also reduce the pressure in the system so no heat went to the heater. Does this make sense? The Block heater is on the back and appears to be in the head rather than the block. I'm hoping I just need a new block heater. Dave

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.
