So first of all hi!
I'm new here and joined because my engine block is broken and I'm looking for advice. I have a Massey Ferguson with a perkins 2.5 liter diesel non turbo.
We have this 3rd hand tractor now for 30 engine hours and suddenly the temp sensor went to 0. The coolant was gone en the engine oil was a thick dark grey/black mayonnaise. I've worked my fair share on mopeds/motorcycles but not on diesel or tractors.
I figured out that most likely it was the head gasket that was leaking/blown although the engine was running great with a clean exhaust. No white or black smoke or lack of power.
I fixed the head gasket, cleaned up the head, new gaskets but the water appears to be leaking way lower in the block...
Any tips ideas?

- The coolant leaks fairly quick if I fill it with 10 liters of water as a test than at least 3-4 liters is out in 10 minutes. If I fill the hose to the water pump it doesn't leak, but If I fill the intake to the block it leaks fast. (see picture)
- So my question is now is the only option left that my carter or cylinder block is somewhere cracked that I couldn't see from the top? The cylinders /piston look fine from the top a bit carbonized as the air filter system was a bit clogged up but nothing serious.
Any tips ideas?
