    I have questions about MF35.

    I'll try that first... that's certainly easier than pulling the head, oil pan and removing the #1 cylinder to check the rings. I will say the coolant level hasn't changed and that there's no indication that there's coolant in the oil pan. Also the smoke smells like burnt oil.

    I have questions about MF35.

    I have questions about MF35.

    It's a Continental Z134, gas, that was a fresh rebuild by the pervious owner. The previous engine had a cracked block and it was replaced with a Z145 block. I don't have 100 percent confidence in the previous owners work. He had mechanical knowledge and abilities, but with that said he installed...

    Farmall 140 ignition problem

    I am working on an International 140 tractor and have an ignition issue. I have no spark at the plugs. I have power up to the distributor and to the points, but not past that. There is no spark at the points when I crank it. When the points are open, I have 12v of both sides of the point...
