Couple quick questions. So I picked up a massey ferguson 35 diesel tractor. It was burning antifreeze, so I thought it was the head gasket, so I took the head off, took it to the machine shop and the said it was cracked. So I bought a brand new head.... my question is what could have caused this? I'm thinking there was a cooling problem? Or out of some circumstances can a head just Crack over time? Tractor has 2900 hours. So I'm thinking should I replace the water pump? Or just put it all back together and see how the temperature operates on the Guage? I bought it to his way so I have no idea how the cooling system was before? I just don't want the head to Crack again. Again thanks for the help, this site has a lot of good information.
