The block has some small dings in it around where the #4 sleeve fits in the block and it is lower than the other three. This is why I believe the problem is with that cyclinder.
I put new rings in it last spring and when I put the head back on it, it did not seal. When I first got the tractor I had the same problem and I tried some Stop Leak in it and it stopped the leak.
If I run it for a couple of hours, I will get about three tablespoons of antifreeze out of the drain and the oil starts to look nasty.
Before I put the head back on, I took it to work and it is flat to within about .003 if I remember correctly.
I do not have a heated area to work in and I do not want to take the head off this winter and I do not want to wreck this engine, after putting the new rings in it. Thank you Steve
