Cracked heads, sleeves recessed into the block = $$$$$$. Buy it cheap and plan on a complete overhaul ($5K to start), or take the Dr's advice.... ------------- "Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian."

| Or just keep that money and invest it into a tractor that doesn't need expensive repairs from the get-go. |

| Had to chuckle a little reading this post, this must have been ours from 40years ago, father said it needed zippers--lol. Took two people for grinding feed, one to load corn and another watching the tractor for leaks. IMO-- the D19 diesel is a liability, not an asset. |

| From personal experience with a 19 gas...it seems to be a one sided working relationship. |

Look out for this along with the treads pulled, dropped sleeves. ------------- 3 WD45's with power steering,G,D15 fork lift,D19, W-Speed Patrol, "A" Gleaner with a 330 corn head,"66" combine,roto-baler, and lots of Snap Coupler implements to make them work for their keep. |
