    farmall a head gasket

    One more question before I tighten to 80 foot pounds. I purchased a "serviceman's guide for Farmall A" on line. It shows the cylinder head studs tension at 62.5 foot pounds. Now I am not doubting you guys, I am just wondering if I should throw this book away? Is here a better one out there...

    farmall A head gasket

    guys, I have a little leak of oil coming out the head gasket opposite the exhaust manafold. I removed the valve cover to find that I can not access the head bolts without taking off the rocker arm assembly. Is there a good shop manual that will aid me in this adventure? Thanks.
