It was grandpas and then my uncle had it. I've never heard family lore of it being rebuilt but there were signs that wrenches had been on the main bearing caps. I find that hard to believe as grandpa was too tight to even buy a new battery - he got all of his at the junk yard. My uncle fixed everything with a pliers and a 16 penny nail.
Its saving grace was probably my uncle, ironically. He fed cows with it until '87 or so and it ran every day for a good while until it was heated up so it escaped any sludge. The valve cover was even more clean. The oil screen on the vane pump plugged up at some point then and he doubled the amount of oil in the crankcase because it hit the pump bypass and it was able to pump full pressure past the dirty pickup screen. Everything in there was submerged for years. Thus the reason for the removal. I want the pump to function like it's supposed to. She's back on the road at the farm (once the pan is on again) hauling bales and water to cattle. Earn your keep no matter how old you are!
