Hey Scott;
Ford built these 4 cyl engines in diesel, TVO & gasoline for use in trucks, tractors & as power units using as many common parts as possible.
They were first released in 1953, the TVO version was never successful, very thirsty on fuel, and was never popular. Dropped by 1956. The gas was still available for special appications. The diesel version was a World Beater !
As far as I know my Super hasnt had an engine rebuild in 7000+ hours. Starts immediately even with almost flat battery, couple of turns and it fires up.
Cheers David

Wow Dave,

That is impressive. Majorman always talks about Fordsons going 5000 - 6000 hours without a rebuild. Mine unfortunetly did not make it too 1k hours without a rebuild. I think that was partially due to neglect.

I would love to have a TVO model ( 4 foot high flames coming out of the stack at night ) fordson but I don't think they brought them to the states.

Did you get my email awhile ago with my pictures of the old girl ??

Thanks,

Scott
