Fordson Super Major Engine Number & Casting Code

Post by Evos3960 »

Am trying to ascertain engine number and casting code number for my Fordson Super April 1963

Have found the following numbers, can anyone identify if these are the relevant numbers? The serial number is 08C 953 859

Number near clutch linkage nest to Ford stamp: EIADKN 7007F T1

On the block near back of starter motor and set in a circle with an arrow at 09.00hrs pointing at the 8: 8201294567

Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Many thanks

The numbers you have found are just casting numbers and are the same on all Majors.

The serial number is under Number1 injector and the casting codes on every cast part are or should be something like this 4A19 which is the year, month and date.

Try this link, you will need the codes: fordsontractorpages and dotty when asked for your username and password, not the ones you use to get on the site.

08C 953 859 is a relevant number, and is the serial number of the tractor, and tell it was manufactured in april 1963, unless someone has changed the motor
