Specifically it was the engine. The 1010-2010 engines had a unique "sleeve-and-deck" cylinder design. The four individual wet-sleeve cylinder liners were all joined together by a plate at the top which was sandwiched between the cylinder block and the head. At overhaul, all the liners together with the plate would be replaced as a single assembly which ostensibly would make the overhaul easier. The problem was the this design was prone to coolant leakage at the lower liner-to-block seals, especially the Diesels since they had greater vibration. The gas engines held up better. The "sleeve-and'deck' liner assemblies are expensive and hard to find today if you need an overhaul. Deere improved this design when they came out with the 2020 series which had conventional individual wet liners. IF you really want a 1010-1020, the best thing is to find a gasser since their engines had better reliability. As with any wet-sleeve engine, check for coolant leakage into the oil pan as they are prove to cavitation pitting of the liner. HTH
