To start off with I bought this 2N tractor not running for a couple of years from my friend Jack. When I got it home I checked the oil & found it to be way overfill & dirty.
2nd step
I went to change the oil and when I drained the oil I found it was overfilled because it had about 2 litres of antifreeze in the bottom before oil came out.
3rd step
I got the motor started and fit was not firing on cylinder #1, I poured tanny oil in the cylinders and let it set a few days.
4th step
I started the motor , it smoked like crazy , I figured it must of had a stuck valve & blown head gasket, when I went to remove the head antifreeze leaked out the head bolts,I quickly put the bolts back in to prevent losing all my antifreeze I drained the block. When I took the head off ( didn't see anything wrong with the head gasket), turned over the motor and seen #1 exhaust valve not moving , I gently with a rubber hammer tapped the valve , now it works.
5th step
Yesterday In order to see if the block was cracked (where I couldn't see ) I filled the water jacket full of water, checked this morning and the water was at the same level , put my finger in the water jacket hole and found when I pulled my finger out it was coated with oil. How would the oil get in the water jacket? the block does not have any oil in the crankcase, drain plug still not re-installed. Where did the oil come from ? no water leaked out.
I hope I made this as clear as I could , if some-one could explain it would sure help. TIA ( sorry for the long post)
