I bought a Farmall A in 1975 with a stuck engine. for $100.00 and that included the 16-inch moldboard plow. The head and pan was off and after looking at the sleeves I pulled the engine. I took a piece of oak and big hammer and I drove out several pistons and several the sleeves came out. I used a torch to heat the sleeves to remove the pistons. I steam cleaned the block to remove a lot of crud. The crankshaft just needed to be polished. It was worn .002" undersize. I bought the bearings from the same shop and had the head redone with new valves and springs. The tractor needed tires, rims, steering wheel, seat, fenders and new wiring. When this picture was taken I had finished plowing my garden and someone stopped to look at the tractor and wanted to know if a mower could be used. I told him to call the IH dealer and he came back and bought the tractor. I bought a Super C later. Hal PS: I would pull the head and see what the sleeves look like. If they're pitted I would do a complete teardown.
