Unfortunately I am in the military and stationed in fl so I can't do it in maryland. My partner on the land uses it to maintain the property he can change oil etc but is concerned about swapping the head, I would personally do it if I was there. I think he is capable of doing it my questions are, does he need to pull injectors and swap them? If so is there a special tool for injector pulling? And does he need to set the valves, if so what are the procedures, how does he verify tdc if that's when they need to be set beside verifying valves are closed?

Yes, the injectors would have to be pulled and put in the new head. Might be possible the old head could be shipped to Hoye, alow and maybe pay them to swap the injectors. If not, this tool is available to rent or buy if needed. INJECTOR REMOVAL TOOL **RENTAL* $1 FOR 1 DAYS: Yanmar Tractor Parts
Yes, valve will have to be set at .006" cold. Head bolts 44-88-118 and 133 + or - 3.6 ft lbs. Easiest way to set the valves on your Yanmar
Nice article here by Hoye with instructions on head gasket. Yanmar Head Gasket Replacement Guide
Off subject, but wondering about Carey, anyone hear from him?

I haven't? I was thinking about him the other day, that he hasn't been around in awhile? I use to have his number somewhere and possibly an email? I know where he lives but I don't go by that way so I cant just swing by. I have been hoping for a few weeks he would check in and confirm to us he is ok.
I will look for his phone number or email.

Sorry Guys!!! Had all I could do lately. Talked to Steve @ Spalding last week. Rear tire problems. Finally have it straightened out. He gave me his excellent advice as usual on what to do for now. But the lips still up on a local tire shop. Caused me all kind of problems!!:confused2: But all is good and have to give Gemplers's Tire Reliners a BIG. :thumbsup: Tire Reliners - Tractor Tire Reliners | GEMPLER'S. They worked and fit like a champ. EX. Service IMO. looks like I saved the Org. Bridgestone's. That is a big plus for me. I've been and tying to keep the 2000 org.. And now highly doubt I will ever wear them out....... Steve asked how long I've had it? 9yrs. and 625hrs. Yeah! looked like it just rolled off a boat with just a new seat. Now if I can get my touch screen and pad working. Again! I may be able to type on it again. But this is looking highly doubtful. Sorry to Hijack this tread. These guys have you covered on any thing you may need advice on. Oh! Bel Air. Md. until the late 70's.

Seems like an easy decision especially if that's the only thing wrong with the tractor.
What could you hope to replace it with for $1600..???

Make sure the radiator and cooling system is fine if you repair it.
I would keep looking for a used head or engine, and wait until I could work on it myself.
