Re: Green Case Loader
looking a lot better Harry . As for the E3 spark plugs , it is just a gimmick . A spark will only jump from the point of least resistance . As the resistance changes so will the location , but it is still only one spark .

Re: Green Case Loader
Are you re-installing a used head gasket and that's the reason for the sealer?Harry wrote: ↑Tue Jul 09, 2024 10:52 amIt’s a copper head gasket sealer made by permatex. I usually just spray the gasket, but this time I also applied it too the head and block surfaces.

Re: Green Case Loader
Bob, I have been using the sealer on head gaskets for a while now. Yes it is the old head gasket. I didn’t have a new one on hand so I reused the old one. Harry

Re: Green Case Loader
Just a quick update on the not much green left machine. To be honest with you I’m starting to get attached to this little GT. I’m slowly starting to put parts back on it. Picked up some new gas line and drained the rear trans axle. I didn’t find any metal filings in the oil, but I’ll probably pull the gas tank and check inside. Works progresses but slower than expected. Harry

Re: Green Case Loader
Noel, no shield but I could make one like I’ve made before. The decision to keep or save will be made after it’s running and I see how it operates. I don’t believe I would have any problem selling it. Harry

Re: Green Case Loader
I had to make a heat shield for my 224 when I got it. Battery and other things would be some hot. If no shield.

Re: Green Case Loader
I was trying to get my grass cut, but we keep getting pop up showers. Yesterday was the same so I parked my grass cutting LT and crawled under the mostly black GT and removed the TCV. David like you said by removing the nuts from under the floor it came off with no problem. I also removed the gas tank to find many acorns. Now I should remove the cover on the top of the trans axle.

Re: Green Case Loader
Harry,
As close as you are I would get the cover off and check the diff bolts, if none are broken/bent then retorqued and go with it.
