    Look at the white circle I marked on head and block. I can't find any gasket anywhere that doesn't restrict those 4 oil/water flow holes. Is this normal that those 4 holes are block by the gasket?

Just love this tractor. Brakes are the best ever.

Pros: Very reliable, simple to maintain and operate, inexpensive to repair, beautiful brakes.
Cons: Hydraulics filters difficult to access, hydraulic flow inadequate for some modern applications.

This tractor has never failed to start. The hydraulics leak a little, but they all work. The steering is a little loose, but it works. My dad bought it used about 1990. It's got a modern 3 point hitch with level control for the hitch. It's also got a front end loader that's been added with a hay fork.

Pros: Always starts.
Cons: Hard to steer.
