What are the chances that both sleeve rings have failed on sleeve 3 & 4 and the block is not cracked?

| What are the odds that four Orings have failed on TWO sleeves exactly in the center of the block right where the blocks are known to crack ?? |

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. This block is junk then correct? |

Kinda looks like the one cylinder has been leaking for awhile according to the rust around the sleeve at the block. Did you pressure test it? ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |

It may be junk but the only way to know is to tear it apart. A few hours of work and you will know. ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |

I have a bare block with no cracks between the cylinders if you are interested. ------------- http://lonsallischalmers.com |

has anyone ever tried any BLOCK SEALER in this application... Either something like BARS that you pour into the antifreeze and run it... or a liquid you pour in around the liners and let it harden around the base ? ( when the block is empty and head is off ).. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
