Siezed Ford 3000 motor rebuild | Part 1 

Thanks for the heads up

Yes I have heard they are a good motor 👍. Many Perkins engines in MF tractors of the same era had cast sump’s, and you would think this engine would have one being a structural block, however it seems odd that it is a pressed steel sump.

Industrial tractors had the cast pan

Probably be a while till part 2 comes along for this one sorry mate, I have a couple more important projects that I need to do, and this probably won’t be having much done to it in the meantime.

@@BIGRIG2005. Ok I understand. I have the same tractor as you and I wanted to learn from you. Do you have manual repair for this tractor?

My apologies for the very belated reply. I don’t have the manual for one of these but if I find a free online source for one I would be happy to attach the link here for you 👍

I do have shoes on, thongs (flip flops for those in America) are my work boots 😂🤣

What does that mean?

@@BIGRIG2005.Probably... displacement

Yes you are probably right, however, cubic centimetre engine displacement is usually denoted with the unit cc, not cm3. When he says cm3 we don’t know what the heck he is measuring in cubic centimetres it could be a box, a shelf, a part, but as soon as he refers to it as cc’s we know he is measuring engine displacement for something.

@@BIGRIG2005.Yeah, its ok. It could be 2.5 dm3 or 2.5 liters :-) Its ok .. put more videos. This ford engines are worth rebuilding

It’s 2.9l /175 cu. In. 4.2 in x 4.2 in bore/stroke
