      when you get the other torque wrench find a bolt that it real tight set the one to a couple different readings and compare the reading to the one you left loaded you might get lucky. you might be in the + – window.

        that is the down side expense,but foam is the best on metal no sweating.I was going to use foam them I stumbled on free insul batting that is meant for metal bldgs it is 5 ft wide and instead of a paper back it is covered on one side with something that reminds me of house wrap.but it does sweat some.But it sure makes a big difference in cooling and heating.I think it is rated at r-13.

          I would say that it is most likely a head gasket .if you can do a compression check to see which cylinders are involved,that will give you some insight what to look for when you look at the gasket.I guess just the head gasket ,I do not know if for the tractor (you did not say what kind)you have they suggest replacing the head bolts.But get the water out of those cylinders asap.

            I do not know how many acres you have total but if it is over 15 look into greenbelt tax status. tree farm and cows work .

                you might want to review some of the posts on the electrical issues causing starter motor problems.sometimes what you would think is mech. is electrical.

                  I guess as far as the manufactures thoughts go it depends which way the wind is blowing.

                    well others can chime in but I do not feel that it would not hurt anything to add a weep hole in the bottomside of the elbow,cause you never know unless you have the crystal ball I have been looking for.

                      there should be one on a up swept exaust ,mine is in the elbow it is only about 1/16 inch hole,when I think of it I check mine if I walk by it when it is running.
