    Need help finding a source for a head gasket

    Thank you for the help guys. The CNH dealer had the correct gasket. He said that it is a standard compression application, and that Ford changed over to high compression some time after mine was built. Just guessing, maybe 4 cyl diesel manufacturing cut in??

When I took the engine apart it was assembled with the head...

    Rebuilding 850 engine with factory sleeves

    Good morning All: I posted earlier that my model 850, serial number 3I4I8, needs engine work. The block part number is EAF 6015 H which possibly means that the engine had cylinder sleeves original. Can someone tell me if that is so? It appears that a number of stores sell the 4 inch...

    What does report to moderator do
