Probably all the massey ferguson perkins p3 152 that he has seen does has lip on the liners, but super dextas are f3 152, ford cast block put together by perkins, with perkins parts to ford spec's unless, it has been machined.

dry sleeves, you can put new rings in it, do not know if you get oversize rings or not? probably not, everybody probably going to say why not replace the liners and pistons also,then you almost have a new engine, you can go to youtube and watch some videos on sleeve removal

If it was a gasoline tank I would empty it and then fill it with water before I put a torch any where near it.

weld it, grind it, wire brush it, you have nothing to lose but bad steering, everything to gain

probably oil leaked out, bad seals, probably been outside in the rain or dew, from the weather, water got sucked into the gear box and then rusted I do not like leaving a tractor out in the weather, just my 2 cents,

weld it , grind it, do the rockers too, new seals, gaskets, etc. agriline has parts , 90w gear oil, new top shaft, new ball bearings, shims etc.

Original Dexta fuel pipes are steel! used cut rubber fuel line instead of brass olives on the ends of the steel pipe,it sealed the pipes, used a cav single stage filter unit, I replaced the fordson original filter unit

I have a question for you guys? Will super dexta rings work in a dexta engine?

I bought a complete unit from agriline for my dexta. and the price was right!

Sodium Silicate or water glass used to stop the leak
