Grffin/ Chinese tractor

[sidestep]

I have a Griffin Chinese tractor that may or may not have a bad head gasket or a
cracked head. I've emailed the Chinese company and never received a reply. Doe's
anyone have any suggestions??????

Chinese tractor companies are more assemblers than manufacturers, the engine is probably built by someone else. Does the engine have a nameplate? If not post a description here and someone might be able to help you ID it. If your TS354C is a 35 HP, it's probably either a 395 (3-cylinder) or a 485 (4-cylinder) made by either Yang Dong or Jiangsu-Jianghuai. Parts for both are readily available from US dealers and from Ali Express. These engines are manufactured by the millions and parts are easy if you know where to look.

Yes. Better yet, a good quality picture of the engine nameplate. Sometimes things get lost in translation.
