I am having the head rebuilt on grandpa"s old farmall M. It is an early 40 model. The new guides are loose in the head. We have tried several sets from different suppliers and they are all too loose. Has anybody had this problem? Any suggestions on ways to fix it? Thanks
 
Have a machine shop knurl the OD of the guides, then put them in place with Loctite sleeve retaining compound.
 
Try some of the stuff Loctite makes. They have special formulas just for cylinder sleeves and i think that would work if they are not too loose.
