Hey
I have a '42? M that was burning oil like crazy. Ive never done a rebuild before and of course, Im not looking to spend a bunch of money, although I will be working the tractor discing, moving hay, and cultivating, so I do need a reliable tractor.
Ring gap on compression rings are between .25" and .375"
Ring gap on oil ring is .5"
Pistons are 3 7/8"
Compression was about 70psi on each cylinder
Lots of carbon deposits from burning oil.
I take it I should buy a manual, but any input?
Where do I get parts?
Thanks
