2n finally running

[KHinWY]

I posted awhile back with a 2n that would not start after replacing the head gasket. Thanks to a couple posts by Bruce and reading the archives I got her going. Ran it for about three hours cleaning the horse pens, has a FEL, it ran ok but was low on power, so I shut her off and advanced the timing a little, started up and ran good, after about ten minutes anti freeze started to spray from the radiator cap. I remembered somewhere a post that said re torque the head so I grabbed the torque wrench and all of the bolts needed a little twist. Anti freeze quit and now the tractor runs good. You guys really have helped. Thanks. I have mechaniced for years so I know a little something but not really the tractors. Thanks again

I always re-torque mine at least 3 times after replacing the head gasket ( Im just that way after cleaning the goo out of the pan from the PO who didn't )
