So I have been gradually working on my grandfathers 860 as time and money allows. So here are the questions.
1. I pulled off the radiator intending to solder the split in the upper seem but there is some kind of baffle loose in the top does anyone know where it goes internally? Could it cause the tractor to overheat(possibly unrelated but I found there was no t-stat installed)? Is it worth it for me to try desoldering the top tank and fixing it? It does have some broken fins but other than the top tank seam leak its tight.
2. Where is the factory temp probe installed? The wire to mine is broken so I can't trace it and the I&T manual has no location mentioned.
3. I adjusted the valves and found 2-4 in the high teens and low 20s(.019-.025) but Cyl #1 ext was tight at somewhere around .005 any ideas why that one was so tight(carbon on the valve?) The intake valve was to loose like the rest.
Thanks for all your help everybody.
Edit Forgot to add that I threw in a NOS thermostat I had from my grandfathers stuff.
