Evening all!
So last week I acquired a basket case of a UB tractor. There is a good reason it was parked in the weeds however many decades ago.
I have a IT manual order for it, not here yet.
In 2000, it was drug out and work was started on rebuilding the motor. Around 2005, they did get it running but water was getting in the oil.
This is what I know, heads are good, both jugs are good(both were replaced, and tested). Again, Im completely unfamiliar with Molines. Chasing this water leak, Ill replace the head gaskets and the gasket between the jug and block. What is there in the water pump to look at? Are they rebuildable?
Motor was completely torn down and rebuilt. From one guys memory, he thought the governor was shot also. Are parts available for the governor?
Right now I dont even know what I dont know with this tractor. I hope to get it up and running like a Swiss watch and keep her in her work clothes.
