Thank you. My idea for pulling the head was to see what things looked like and make sure there was plenty of lubrication/oil/ATF-diesel mix, etc., everywhere needed.
I doubt the shop magnafluxed anything. Here's the story: prev.owner took it to shop because engine was stuck. Shop pulled the head and when it went back together it ran, "fine." They put it back outside where it sat for 3 months before owner picked it up. It was stuck again when he picked it up. He gave up. I got it two years later.
I pulled pan drain and got water and anti-freeze. I pulled spark plugs to put ATF/diesel mix in cylinders. (Which I already did as soon as I got it home !!) When I pulled second plug darned if I didn't get water/anti-freeze out of the plug hole. (nice) I under these are wet-sleeve engines that have a water seal at the bottom of each sleeve. I think there is either a bad sleeve seal or a crack somewhere, (I hope it's not the latter)
If I do pull the head I'll see what I can do and set the head back on so everything's covered and oily.
