I lost a cylinder in my 706 gas once too. It was a burnt valve. I planted 60 acres with it that way. Of course it didn't have all of it's power but it got the job done. I left the spark plug in. If all of your cylinders are burning oil switch to Champion D21 spark plugs. They seem to keep firing pretty well. My oil rings (3 piece) had worn down. Still had good compression and scraper rings. Oil burning probably caused the valve to burn due to deposites building and holding valve open. The time it takes to rebuild one cylinder isn't that much less than the entire tractor. In frame overhaul maybe enough. Mains and rod bearings are cheap. Main bearings can be "rolled" in. That vintage of gas engine seem to be hard on valves ... so a trip to the machine shop for teardown and valve grind might be a good idea. Very simple engine to do an inframe overhaul on. Yes, the piston needs to come out of the top. Goodluck.
