It always amazes me how good you guys are at guessing what the problem is by a few hints. In this case it must of been my good description of the noise I was hearing... glirp glirp?? Who uses that word besides a man who is desperate to fix his Tractor lol. Anyway, I tore the side inspection cover off the motor so I could see if I had a bent push rod and quickly determined that they were all fine. Then I pulled the valve cover and vwalla, there it was.. the forward most rocker section/assembly had failed. To explain it I'll explain in my terms, the whole rocker section....the rocker arm is on top of a tube that slides over and swivels on the main rail when it rocks back and forth to push the valve down/open and back again. The tube that slides over the mail rail is partially broken away and cannot push the valve down anymore. Very well could be due to us not lashing the valves when I put the head back on this spring, but I guess I'll never know. So, does anyone know if I can buy just the one rocker assembly or do I have to buy the whole front half of the assembly? If I had to guess I would say I should be able to buy just the one rocker assembly and slide all the stuff off the main rail til I get the one off that I need and then put everything back on the way it goes. But if someone knows for sure one way or another, please let me know. Last question. Does anyone know where I can get the part I need? I have a few places in mind but it wont hurt to know a few more. I'm gonna have to have it shipped to me anyway so if you have a place that you would recommend, please let me know. Again I want to thank everyone who took the time to post a reply to my problem. Thanks, Tod Michigan.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
