Is someone still looking for a Roadless narrow front end ?

Thanks, mathias1

Looking for a oil pump to fit the Dexta gasoline engine which is the Standard 87mm engine. Wondering if a Tea20 Ferguson pump will fit.

Not sure how to load photos

Recently acquired a narrow front ent for a major and was wondering if the upper housing should be filled with oil to lubricate the two gears in there or maybe use a heavy grease. There is no level plug for this housing but there is a 1/4 pipe plug on the vertical housing and it was filled up to this...

Looking for a set of County Full track sprockets to fit the E27N AND A CAV starter

Looking for two Sprocket assy for a Fordson County Full Track, appreciate any leads.

Wondering if the Petrol Dexta is painted Empire blue

Still looking before a FORDSON MAJOR with a narrow front end or just the front end itself

Thanks for your comments, wondering where one could buy liner kits, gasket sets, rod and main bearings

You probably need to remove the piston in the top cover and clean and in stall new piston seals. Make sure the piston bore is good with no corrosion or pitting, also clean and reseal the valve body and make sure the valve is not sticking. I have done a couple of mine with good results

Does anyone know what the differences are between the Fordson major Diesel engine to the gas engine other than the head. Are the pistons, liners etc different and gasket sets

Wanted a narrow front axle for a Fordson Major, in any condition.

In the process of an engine overhaul and unable to verify engine series as the serial number is not stamped on RHS of block
Anyone able to help

Brian,
Thanks for the info

Wondering who supplies parts for the Petrol Standard engine in the Fordson Dexta. Will parts interchange with some of the petrol Fergusons ?

Engine was completely disassembled, block and con rods were checked by engine rebuild shop, crankshaft reground,new liners,pistons,rings installed. Cyclinder head rebuilt by engine rebuild shop,new camshaft ,rebuilt injectors and fuel injection pump installed. I compression tested and all cylinders ...

Wondering if anyone has ever compression tested a Fordson Super Major engine,

At least the exhaust valves.

Thanks for all the info, one more thing do all the engines in the NP super major require valve rotator cups?

If I am getting more lift on my cam than the specs say I should in theory be getting better performance, 0.305 versus 0.255

I have since checked the cam lift and I got a reading of 0.305 and according to the service manual that measurement is for an older series engine, this one is suppose to be 0.255. Not sure if the cam shafts can be interchanged. Any thoughts on this one.

Thanks guys for the info. I tractor pull with this one and have run it under load on the dyne several times. Do believe she is well broken in, it runs really good under load and I even turned up the setting on the pump a couple of turns. I would be happy to get 47hp but down at least 20%.

I have 150 hours on a complete over hauled engine in a Fordson super major and recently hooked it up to a pto Dyno to find out it is only puttting out 35hp. I have rechecked the valve stttings, timing is set at 21degrees. This engine had new liner kits, new cam shaft, new rod and main bearings, head...
