Thanks Gilbert.  I found a WD head on a dead tractor nearby that the 
owner is going to load us for a trial. (I offered to grind the seats 
and valves for him in return...which is OK for us retired 
guys.....time's pretty cheap!)    So we'll try that before investing 
the big bucks in a rebuild kit for cylinders and pistons.   John
