Stumpalump said it right, any time you are buying something used and there is a least problem with it that you don't know for sure how to fix always figure on worst case scenerio. I bought a Oliver 1800 with some problems and didn't figure it that way. Big mistake and even though I could put it together and just carry it to another sale and put it off on someone else I know how that feels and won't do it to someone else. This means that when I was told it might need a new injector and a seal in the power steering I am now up to a rebuilt injection pump, rebuilt injectors, one broke push rod, no telling what else as there was fuel in the oil. It is probably going to get a in frame rebuild and had I figured that into my price I wouldn't have paid as much. That leak could be something as simple as retorquing the head bolts or be something major likke a rebuild. If the dealer wants to sell it he will have his mechanic check it and at least give you an estimate on fixing it. As for the 4020 gas, we have one, if your gonna use ot alot the suck fuel. Something to think about
