He may get it to running very well with just a head gasket and new rings.

Just because it was stuck does not mean it is ruined.

He may even get by without a new head gasket.

It is possible to work on these old tractors for very little money if you don't mind tearing them down again if you are wrong, or if you do not have to have it perfect when you are finished.

A little smoke out the stack just helps keep the mosquitoes away.

I've reringed a lot of them with worn pistons and sleeves which would not hone up real good, but they run just fine and I use them that way. New sleeves and new pistons set you back about as much as you pay for the tractor but one set of rings is pretty cheap. (I don't put new rod bearings in just because the engine is open either, that's what they make plasti-gage for)
