B with Green Oil

Tim in New York · Jul 3, 2014

Went back to look at the rusty B with the 2 way plows more closely. Found I could see nothing in the radiator and the oil on the dipstick had a distinct green tinge to it. So I can guess where the coolant probably is.

We never had to do any engine work on our B when I was a kid. Is there any one thing most likely to cause this with a B?

Thanks,

Tim

O ring failure at the bottom of the cyl liners. Major surgery.

Freeze plugs in top of head , easy fix.

There is 2 or 3 things that can cause that. Head gasket, or sleeve O-ring. Do not remember if there is any freeze plugs in the head under the valve cover but if there are those can do it also

Thanks for the responses. Will see how much the guy is asking, of maybe just see what it goes for at the auction.
