Hi people this is an update on a post from a while ago, about my Ford 4600 that i had the fuel pump turned up on and it drank the radiator in 5 minutes and stuff, anyways we tore down the engine and the head gasket was in great condition, the head block was not cracked no blocks were cracked, we pressure tested the system and we found that the block was porous, and that there was a cavity in the block, it had well water mixed in with full strength antifreeze to make 50/50 every time the coolant had been changed, for its whole life. we looked up from the oil pan into the block and the middle cylinder was the one with the little cavity in it, it was right between the liner and the block, the sleeves look SO thin from the bottom. if there are any it seems like they should be a whole lot thicker, but anyways yesterday my dad just told me that he remembered 10 years ago before i even started driving this tractor and before the fuel was even turned up, he had this same exact problem and he remembered he put this cheap sealer in the radiator to seal it from leaking into the block, and when we took the head off today , it looked like someone had put sealer in it before plus one of the coolant ports was plugged with this battery post corrosion type material, but the fact is , is i wonder if mabey 10 years later the seal just kind of broke or wiggled out of the cavity hole, but did that happen from to much fuel or something I DONT KNOW, but I'm thinking if i put new gaskets on it and put it all back together and buy some really good expensive sealer and try to reseal that back up. i would have to do a couple of oil changes to get all the coolant out that does leak into the block while i flush the sealer throughout the radiator "oh yea all crank bearings are good" . SO ANYWAYS, i think it was just a defect in the block, a bad block that came from the manufacturer , I don't know, but apparently this tractor had this problem before i even owned it. if it is possible, i would like the same people who were on my old post to post on this one too, too see what they think, AND all new people that see this post to.
