OK ..... need to have my 706 gas soon for fall harvest. So, this week I am going to pull the head and have it gone through. Will deglazing the cylinders and installing new rings solve the oil buring? The engine does not have that many hours on it since it had new sleeves and pistons. Probably was pulled hard on 40 acres only disking. Did some cultivating and rotary mowing during 5 years. Ran a grain dryer three years. Engine ran great all during this time. Then changed oils and weights and everything went to pot. May or maynot have been the reason. Went from SAE 30 to SAE 14 - 40. Other than that not that many hours. Maybe 250 - 300. Tach cable broke. Surely the sleeves and pistons can not be hurt that much. Presently uses alot of oil and runs on less than 6 cylinders. I think a cylinder is completely down. Valve? I understand these may have not been the most durable engines. Any help will be appreciated as I tear it down and rebuild. What would you do? andy
