Larry, if you post a picture, someone here will identify it. Otherwise, go to the Case IH website, under parts and service, select "search for parts", then type in 240 or 340. There are pictures there.

Pull the spark plugs and look for coolant. Do a compression check.Then get back on here and ask more questions. Best Regards, Charlie
