300U dilema

Posted by Kit on November 29, 2003 at 13:05:18 from (64.30.57.133):

A while ago I posted a question about low oil pressure in
my 300U. I decided to check the oil pump and when I
drained the oilpan I found a small quantity of antifreeze -
not a good sign. I went to my local tractor mechanic and he
thought that I should check the head gasket. The double
sided metal gasket did not show obvious signs of failure.
He also said that the head may be cracked as this is a
problem with this engine. When I pulled the rocker arm
cover, there was some antifreeze laying there with the
cover covered with light colored frothy oil. Pistons and
cylinder walls appear to be okay. Does it sound like a
cracked head? The up side of this is that other
improvements will be made while she is torn down.
