Hi folks,
I have a German built model with a 1.8 liter (3 cyl) diesel motor. The headgasket is seeping/leaking oil on the front corner. Couple of questions: 1st, other than the leak, there are no obvious problems with the motor. Think I can get by with just replacing the headgasket (and related gaskets)? Or am I going to have the head planed? 2nd, a sensiuos thought crossed my mind (sense you was doing this, might as well do that). If I decided to turn the head in and have it redone, can finishing the rest (bearings, seals, cylinder sleeves, etc) be taken care of without splitting the tractor? When I look for rings, I only find a complete set of piston, rings, and sleeve. Is it as simple as just sliding the old sleeve out and the new one in? Or, should I just leave well enough alone until something breaks? Thanks, Dave
