Hinomoto 2304 Head gasket replacement

[ranger25]

OK, got a new head gasket, actually bought two since I found them for 59 bucks at Walts Tractor Parts, Manuals and replacement parts for Farm Tractors. Does anybody know what the bolts are suppose to be torqued down to and also if the fact that I saw oil on the coolant could also mean that there is a cracked water jacket?

Do a search in this section. The torque specs have been posted before. Oil in the coolant could also be a result of a bad head gasket.

You might want to have your head resurfaced if it got hot. Also check in the top of the head to see if the freeze plug is pushed out.
