Figured I’d start a thread as my little tractor is going to be over hauled.
I have yet to tear my motor down but am pretty sure at a minimum it requires new rings. Was ran without coolant for an unknown amount of time, thankfully it still cranks over but not enough compression to ignite the diesel.

Before I get to deep in a have two very simple questions.

1) are new rings and or pistons available for this motor.
2) does anyone make a gasket kit.

Once these are checked off I’ll worry about everything else. This will be a super detailed tear down and rebuild. My tractor came with the Monroe matic system I’ll be doing my best to figure this out and document it well to share my findings.

Wish me luck
