Is this common on these engines, first diesel oliver FIL has taken apart, and he noticed a crack by the injector on the gasket surface. thanks chris
 
I would worry if there was NOT a crack in the head. If you look you will find more. I don't know you took the engine apart but get seats put in the head so you can set the valve recession to the correct specs. It will improving starting. More questions, post aphone number. J.
 
Thanks for the reply, I told him its common at least on the older diesels, he did a compression check and most were 175 but one had 225, 225 is what local oliver guru told him what it should be. Will pass your information to him tomorrow. chris
