boy oh boy had a (1950 JD D styled) dropped off over the weekend it is a good looking tractor in original paint but when parked Rats built nest in the exhaust water got in the cylinders and made a real big mess. We were told to free it up and get it running saw the mess in the exhaust and pulled it decided to pull the head and wow! that thing has sat for quite some time to have that much build up. That was after we tore into the 2000 that had a knock we found that the last person that was in there put a standard piston in a a .020 over hole. I guess he thought 2 correct out of 3 wasn't gonna hurt.

You sure can find some messes people make some time. Took a diesel engine apart from a 941 ford two pistons had ring end gaps perfectly aligned the other two had shattered ring lands, also had .010 rod bearings on .020 crank. I am guessing they shot so much ether to it to get it started that it busted the pistons.
