[AT] Farmall B head

[charlie hill]

Speaking of cracked heads.  I was listening to a radio car fix it show on
Saturday morning and the guy was talking about water glass.  He said that
Genuine Mopar antifreeze and one of the stop leak products ( I can't call
the name right this second) have water glass in them.
