2135 block

[dondittmar]

Hi all
I have a 2135 in the shop that is putting coolant into the crankcase BAD. Upon tear down, the block is cracked at the top and bottom. Engine is the Z134 gas. Are there any good used blocks out there?

I have read this is quite common with these engines and as bad as thing is putting antifreeze where is shouldn t be, I m not of for repairs unless a good used block cannot be found

The fellow I bought my 202 from let it
freeze. I bolted it back together, but I'm
getting coolant in the oil again. Sort of
a waste of time, but I needed the loader
and it took me 6 months to find a block.
They are around. There is a guy in Western
New York with a good block. He wants
$700 for the whole 202. What is your
location?

I don't know about Michigan. Start looking
for a parts tractor? 35, 135, 202,
204,2135 all had Z134s. I think* a Z145 is
the same block (different pistons, con
rods and crank) They ARE around. A lot of
guys have extra parts. You'd have to find
a guy willing to sell on lol! BTH, you
need the knock out for the power steering.

The tractor is not mine, am I doing this for a guy, and being this is a "paying" job I will not put it back together with a cracked block. The whole reason it came to me was coolant in the oil, and they tried a head gasket and that didnt fix it.
