yea for the bottom end is easy and not to bad on price but the vale parts i need you cant buy new. Im happy with doner engine and its priced right at free

I'm lead to believe the trans and breaks is why it was parked up and he had another of the same tractor but in better condition so just held it for parts

The bottom end is easy enough to rebuild so i really have no concerns there but the valves etc - well we have never seen something so worn out and I'm not sure about the rest of the word but getting the required parts in NZ is hard without just getting the whole engine, importing parts is ok but...

hahaha yea iv seen it going. its an old friend one

So to update as its been a while. The engine is buggered. The compression test relieved that it will need a complete rebuild, new liners the lot. Added to that the valve train is shot, the wear in this assembly is huge. I have had a stroke of luck and been given a whole complete engine with good...

Na mate shes toast. Rebuild time

Cheers. going to try some nice thick oil and new air filter and cross my fingers for a bit of luck. hopfully that will slow it down. not worried about a little bit of oil leakage - keeps the dust down just not to good on the wifes concrete

Lets hope for the filter then hahah. Cheers
