Hey Does anyone out there offer an engine overhaul kit for a Cockshutt 540 tractor? I believe that the motor is a Continental 4 cylinder flat head. I'm wondering aside from bearings and what not what exactly is included in an overhaul kit? My tractor smokes and I'm told that the rings should be replaced. I'm restoring the tractor and think it would be best to give the motor the once over before I paint everything. Thanks for all the input in advance.

Most of the engine kits you see listed are for engines with replaceable sleeves. Your engine is not a sleeve type engine. Therefore your overhaul will need to include a set of oversize pistons. The bores will need to be measured to determine what oversize you need. 30 over is a common size but pistons are also available in other sizes. Your engine may or may not "clean up" at 030 Your engine is easy to get parts for since they were very popular in lift trucks. More questions? J.
