| Finally got this thing back together . Made a lap around the block and so far no coolant leak . Found one of my 'good' studs was bent so I replaced all 8 . Have a new manifold , water pump , coil , and a rebuilt hydraulic pump now . I'm ready for some seat time . Almost forgot I have a new muffler too Thanks |

| Re-tighten all manifold stud nuts in the morning when it is cold. Do this several times to keep things tight as new gaskets seem to shrink with use. |

| I did retorque them to 30 lbs after it cooled down from the test drive . I'll check them again tomorrow . Have to say I was surprised that it took some turning to get back to 30 lbs.Thanks |

| My brother asked why my old tractor just had a few pieces painted . Told him when I take something off I usually clean and paint it . Does look a little strange I guess . Oh well . |
