About 25 years ago we had a Allis WC. That froze up and cracked the block external. You could stick a razor blade in the crack. My Dad cleaned the block, washes the crack out with
either,Heated the block with atorch, pushed
"powder lead" in to the crack,heated the block again with the torch. Filled up the radiator
with water. Left the cap off, put a tarp over
the radiator started the tractor, warm her up good, poured WATER GLASS in real slow and let her get near hot! Pulled the tarp and let her set and run for about 1/2 hour. Let it cool down some, drain down the water put antifreeze in.
No leak, No crack,. The next summer we sanded it down painted the tractor and used it for many
years. Hope this helps.
