been fooling with a buddies 254 ih diesel for a while with an overheat problem. he said when worked hard the tractor overheats unless the hood is left open. he had a guy work on it a couple years ago, said he machined the head and new head gasket. worked for a while but then problem returned. battery and air cleaner were mounted directly in front of radiator, he thought that may be the problem. fooled with it for a while, then finally pulled the head. it was warped .005, and apparently the other guy didnt machine the head, just gooped it up with some kind of sealer. head is back from machine shop, waiting for parts from cih. 100 dollars for a head gasket!!! 3 cyl mitsubishi diesel.
