I bought this tractor about a month ago.
Knew it would be stuck bad as the stack was open for who knows how long.
I posted last week about a bare 201 block and crank l bought to replace it. I will use all the peripherals off this 192 to complete the 201.
Had hoped to use the cam and rods out of this one too but maybe not.
It warmed up yesterday so I pulled the head off.
Not very pretty.
Now I have doubts about saving the cam and rods. Maybe the crank will be saveable...
BTW, i had forgotted what a pia a gasser is to work on. All the extra air filter and firewall stuff they have on them.
Any thoughts on how to save these rods?
Pull the crank of course but I still doubt a guy can slug these pistons out even with an 8 lb sledge and 4X4 block of wood.
I do have other rods and a cam so don't HAVE to reuse these. Sad to see one so ugly aint it?.
