Specific figures require model-specific data. Torque Characteristics: Designed for agricultural applications, emphasizing low-end torque. Specific figures vary by model and engine configuration. Fuel System Injection Type: Typically mechanical direct injection (e.g., CAV, Lucas/Simms rotary or inline pumps). Fuel Type: Diesel Cooling System Type: Water-cooled, typically with a thermostat and fan. Lubrication System Oil Type Specification: Typically SAE 15W-40 or 20W-50 diesel engine oil. Specific API service classification (e.g., CD or higher) is crucial. Refer to manual for exact specification. Engine Rebuild Key Components: Pistons, rings, liners, crankshaft, bearings, cylinder head, valves, camshaft. 🔧 Transmission Standard Type: Various manual gearboxes, often with multi-speed configurations (e.g., 8-speed, 16-speed, synchronized and unsynchronized options). Optional Features: Creep speed gears, high-low range selectors, independent PTO options. Features Fluid Type: Typically SAE 80W-90 or SAE 90 GL-4 gear oil for the gearbox. Hydraulic fluid (e.g., ISO VG 46) for the hydraulic system and transmission lubrication may also be specified. Refer to manual for exact specifications. 📐 Dimensions Exterior Wheelbase: Varies by model. Example: Leyland 270 approximately 81 inches. Weights Operating Weight: Varies by model. Example: Leyland 270 approximately 4,800 lbs (2,180 kg) without ballast. 🛡️ Safety Features Active Features Braking System: Typically rear drum or disc brakes, often with independent rear wheel braking or differential lock for traction. Passive Features Operator Protection: Roll-over protection structures (ROPS) may be available or required depending on local regulations and specific tractor configurations. Seat belts. 💡 Technology Features Infotainment Features: Basic instrumentation (tachometer, oil pressure, temperature, ammeter), likely no modern infotainment systems. Driver Assistance Features: Mechanical power steering on some models, differential lock for traction assistance. Connectivity Features: N/A (Analog systems) 🔧 Maintenance Service Intervals Engine Oil Change: Typically every 250 hours of operation. Refer to manual for specific interval based on operating conditions. Air Filter Service: Check and clean at 100-200 hours, replace as needed. Severe dust conditions require more frequent attention. Fuel Filter Replacement: Typically every 500 hours or annually, or when experiencing fuel system issues. Fluid Specifications Hydraulic Fluid Type: Tractor Hydraulic Fluid (THF) or Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) meeting specific viscosity and additive requirements (e.g., ISO VG 46 or similar). Refer to manual for approved brands and specifications. Coolant Type: Ethylene glycol based antifreeze/coolant (e.g., 50/50 mix with distilled water) for freeze and corrosion protection. Known Issues Common Wear Items: Clutch friction plates, brake linings, hydraulic pump seals, PTO bearings, electrical connections, starter motor brushes, water pump seals. Engine Specific Concerns: Potential for injector pump wear, injector nozzle clogging, head gasket leaks, and valve seat recession if not properly maintained. 📚 Vehicle History Brand...
