When I stuck my finger in the radiator I was able to lift a finger full of oil like sludge. The guy who is selling it tells me he has owned it for 22 years and because of his age he could no longer mow with it because he was banged around too much driving it. He has a brand new John Deere sitting next to it. He also told me he has been driving the tractor with the oil in radiator for over two years?

I recently looked at a 1947 8N that is in decent shape but with one thing. There is oil in the radiator. The engine has good oil pressure and it runs really well.

Do you think this is most likely a cracked block or are the odds it is a head gasket?

If it is a cracked blocked could it be repaired for a reasonable amount?

He also has an extra carb and manual for the tractor

The guy wants $800.00 for it do you think it's worth it?
