Good evening,
Recently, I've been trying to get my late father's 1952 John Deere B up and running again.
I rebuilt the carb, cleaned up the magneto and successfully got it to fire and run.
I could hear something amiss so I started looking around and found a fair amount of air leaking past one of the new spark plugs.
I tried to tighten up the plug, but I can tell that it's seated as far as it can go so I don't want to over tighten it.
What are some of my options here?
Can you install a Heli-Coil on an old cast iron John Deere block??
Thanks for any advice you can offer me.
