For those of you that remember the Catastrophic H injury post from last fall well here is the results. I picked up this pretty nice straight H at an auction with loader and pretty tight all around. For $250.00 well when I pulled the drain plug at the base I got somewhere around 3 gal of antifreeze out of the base. I pulled the head and didnt see anything there. I filled the block up with out the head and she sat for a few weeks and no new antifreeze in the pan. So I came on the board and asked you folks what you thought. I received some pretty good thoughts , Soft Plug, Waterpump, Cracked block, Cracked head, and some that didnt apply to an H. Well I stopped back at the machine shop today and the head has been magnafluxed with the block now and guess what ? Not a crack to be found. I guess my initial thoughts were correct Way back when someone filled the block with antifreeze either to stop it from cracking or to buy it cheap at an auction I guess.. So there you go there is the answer and I am alfull happy too. JON

Did they preeeure check the head? Seems to me on an M there are a couple of sleeves in the head that the head studs pass through. If these rust through, water can get into the oil by passing along the head stud into the valve cover area and then down to the crankcase. I don"t know if an H is the same, but might be something to look at while you have it apart.

Just a thought.

Good deal Jon,

Always nice to find good news when working on a 'new' machine. Always seems to me that I get more bad suprises than good. I'm keeping my fingers crossed about my H crankshaft. I hope to start pulling the engine down next week. Thanks again for the video. It's nice to know you are ahead of me in the process so I can ask you lots of questions LOL.
