Farmall H Engine Spacers?

farmallboy1994 · May 25, 2009

I am rebuilding my Farmall H and had to quit for awhile becase my Dad got busy at work and I am only 15 and this is my first tractor. But In the container we have the head nuts in there are 3 spacers. We dont know where they go. Any ideas. There are two bigger ones and one smaller ones. They dont go on the rods because i already have them on. Also what is the head tourqe pattern

not sure of the spacers, but the torque order is easy just start on the center bolt and work your way out clockwise be shore to do this in steps to work up to final torque , be sure to retorque after it running and hot sometimes those copper head gaskets will seep antifreeze if you dont

Do you mean washers? They go under the head nuts where the surface around the head bolt hole looks different. Test install the head (no gasket) to be sure the bolts stick up far enough to allow full thread contact with the nut. Sometimes the bolts will get threaded too far down into the block.

Just a quick run down through the parts associated with the head, I don't see anything that there's three of listed, but then they're different sizes so they'd have diffeent numbers anyway . . .

What are you calling spacers? Are they like thick washers? Just wondering if they might be 3 of the 4 washers that are used on the four manifold studs. The ends of the manifold bolt right down, but the four studs in the middle take a washer to allow the seams cut into them to expand and contract. If they're made of a bronzish type material, that may be where they came from.
