Thanks Guys, This little fella was not plum! I picked up in field east Calgary, Canada this summer. It had to have been there for several years. Fortunately it was not rusted up too bad. The engine was in bad shape, turned the crank 10-20. Replace the guides and ground the valves. The piston bores were perfect!
DR, what does that little Avery use for an engine?

Dr. Years back while still in the implement business we had a old MF Super 90 Diesel with a stuck engine. We removed the injectors and poured a combination of Marvel Mystery oil and diesel fuel down each bore and let it sit for several days. Pulled it with another tractor with the old 90 in gear and it broke loose. Amazing enough when we put the injectors back in and gave it another tug the engine started right up and ran great considering how we got it. Good luck with yours.

Ken, if you check out the "gallery", there is space for each member to have their own "photo album". You could post some pictures there for every one to see, and even hotlink them into threads. :fing32:
