I checked with white Owl today, the used engine may be an option for me, he said they test run them. Of course shipping is always an issue for me in the great North of Maine.

Here are the pictures that tell the story of the stuck engine. All because a critter crawled up into the exhaust and made a root cellar. You can see where the debris leaked down into the cylinders, #3 was the worst with a big hunk of nasty, looks like a domed piston. So now the engine had to...

It really sucks as the engine is very clean and shows no sign of oil leaks, hopefully the head can be repaired.

Pulled the manifold tonight, just as I suspected all packed in with acorn crap and it looks like all the exhaust valve stems are rusted. And I'm sure which ever valves may have been open crap leaked into the cylinders. Head is off next.

I would think as long as they have been in business they must have some, worth a try for sure.

I sucked out a lot more from the manifold last night, there was even what appeared to be roots growing in there, before you know I think a tree would have sprouted. I have the manifold nuts soaking in Kroil and Ill take them off tonight and see what evil lurks behind it.

Interesting, the Gama Goat engine TM 9-2815-214-34 March 1970, GM Model 3-53 For Engine Diesel states " The block is bored to receive replaceable wet-type cylinder liners. A water jacket surrounds the upper half of each cylinder liner. The water jacket and air box are sealed off by a seal ring...

Started to pull items off the head to remove it today and I found what is probably the cause of the stuck engine. As you can see a critter packed the exhaust pipe and manifold full of goodies, who knows what else I'll find.

Thanks for posting, lucky devil a goat owners dream come true.

That engine looks really nice, I have engine envy.

One of these looks like a simple install...

Looks like Nick D

Nice rig, that should pluck the engine out with ease. I'll probably enlist the help of a local tractor to pull mine.

Driver's seat adjuster was froze so I took it apart, no real rust just super dry so cleaned it up and sprayed in some lithium grease. Blasted, primed and painted the used door hinge assemblies I needed to complete the door kit. Installed and connected up the rear tail lights I refurbished, had...

I would be more inclined to buy the red one that's been on the big "E" for 5k and go get it or ship it. I considered it but shipping to Maine would have doubled the price, you are a lot closer.

Also, if you decide to pull the head I bought the injector timing gage, both you and Tom are welcome to borrow it.

I have used that paint remover in a spray can before, just watch it and when it starts to bubble the first layer wipe it off.

I'm afraid it may be the large O-rings that are around the cylinder sleeves and you would do all that work on the head and have it not work. Although you may pull the head and it may be obvious what's bad, it's hard to say. I was tempted to pull the head on mine but that thing looks real heavy...

60lb box arrived today containing a NOS Winterization door kit. Kit was intercepted headed for the Gilbert rally in PA. The drawing 11661583 showing assembly and the two door hinge assemblies 11661598-1(-2) were missing. I have a pair of old hinge assemblies I can clean up and use but if...

Installed the center u-joint today, a trial in patience for sure given the tight quarters and the rear steering slip shaft. Also secured the carrier steering box cover with new hardware received today, 1/4-20x3/4. TIP: The DA Pam 750-31 talks about checking the u-joints to make sure they are...
