I'm about to put on another head gasket on my 1950 Case DC. I replaced the other one less than a year ago and now I'm replacing it again because I had to put new rings in my tractor. So I should replace, again, whiles the head is off. The problem is that I have been having been having oil seep out a little by where the push rods are. Also there has been a little oil is the water, but my dad told me that has been doing that for 40 years. I heard about this permatex copper spray-a-gasket, and when I got it, it didn't saying anything about how to put it on? Should I put it on tacky or dry it overnight then put it on? Also will this help fix my leaks? The head has probably never been right since it left the factory back in 1950, and probably has some irregularities to it.
Also one more question, What should I torque the head to on a 1950 Case DC ?
