After you get the old sleeves out, the new ones will go in with a little "persuasion". We used remove the piston and then wrap the new sleeves individually in newspaper. Put them in the deep freeze over night. (Make sure you # them and the piston that was in them when you remove it so you keep the pair together.) When you have the block bore cleaned & ready, oil one hole lightly, get one sleeve out of the freezer, unwrap it and slide it in the hole. (It might be a good idea to have a 4X4 or 4X6 hardwood block ready, because the sleeve might need some "friendly persuasion" from a 4-pound hammer to "get'er done", but it works.) Repeat the procedure for each hole. We did a lot of them that way when I was a kid. From about the 6th grade until I was out of HS, we farmed 800 acres with three H's and overhauled one every winter for about 5 years and never broke a sleeve. It those days you could get an overhaul kit from TSC for about $70. It included all gaskets and a sleeve & piston set along with rod bearings in standard, .010 or .020 under. As I remember it, if you needed .030 under, it was an extra $5.00. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
