Ok you guys have helped in the past and would like advice on what I can do to hear my Super H run. Here is a quick run down on this tractor. Im the second owner. It was used for light farm work and whatnot by the original owner, then it sat for an what the owner said 5 yrs?? Not sure.. but the engine was stuck.. Filled cylinders with penetrating oil, took pan off and unbolted the rod caps, had the head off and wacked the pistons with a 2x3 piece of hardwood, and got them to move. put everything back together, new carb rebuild kit, points, plugs, wires, rotor, new battery, etc. Ok I then tried starting and almost got it running, wouldnt go thou..We live on a big hill so I had my father tow me up to the top of the hill and I put tractor in 4th on top of the hill and let the clutch out, and it then fired under the "load of the hill" It then had water coming out of the exhaust! :( I instantly thought head gasket or the worst. So i took the head back off thinking maybe I installed the head gasket upside down...So I bought a new head gasket, made sure it was installed on right and the head was torqued down properly. Put it all back together..wouldnt start...so tried towing again....same thing..water out the exhaust! :( I assume that the water from the radiator is putting my fire out in the cylinder thus not allowing it to run? then it pushes out the exhaust? I visually see now cracks in the head or block..Do you guys think I have a cracked head or block? Do the cylinders have sleeves or no? Was wondering if I have a cracked sleeve maybe? I do not know what to do now, and dont know the easiest and possibly cheapest way to go about checking to see what my problem is! Should i take the head to someone to have it magnafluxed? I hate to rip the engine out if i dont absolutely need to. Is there a way to pressure test to see where my leak is? I was once told on a previous tractor i was working on to remove the pan and then pressure test the radiator and if i have a leak that it will visually be seen that way. I dont have a pressure tester, is this a way to check? Sorry about the long post guys, i just am itching to hear this run on its own and this is one fine looking super h with no dents or dings in the tin work anywhere! Please help and thank you in advance!!!

Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
