The engines fitted to Ford Dexta 2000 tractor are three cylinder, four-stroke engines of 152 cu. in. (2500 cc) respectively. The engine capacity is obtained by having a bore of 3.6 in (91.44 mm) and a stroke of 5 in (127 mm). Overhead valves are employed, operated by tappets from a high-mounted, gear-driven camshaft located on the right-
hand side of the cylinder block. The valves are vertically located in replaceable guides in the cast iron, detachable cylinder head, and they have two springs per valve. The inlet valve head is larger in diameter than the exhaust valve.

Aluminium alloy pistons are fitted with five piston rings; three compression and one oil control above the piston pin and one oil control below. The piston pins are fully floating and arc retained in position by end circlips. To ensure rigidity, an integrally cast cylinder block and crankcase is employed, and is fitted with full length, renewable, dry cylinder liners.

The crankshaft is supported in four main bearings. These bearings and the connecting rod big end bearings are of the detachable, steel backed type. Two cast iron balance weights are fitted to the crankshaft, one at the front crankweb, and the other at the rear crankweb. Crankshaft end-float is controlled by detachable thrust washers fitted at each side of the rear main bearing cap.

An enclosed camshaft, plunger type fuel injection pump is flange-mounted on the timing case, and gear driven from the crankshaft gear via an idler gear. The two-hole type injectors are located vertically in the left-hand side of the cylinder head. The speed is controlled by a mechanically governed fuel injection pump. To assist cold starting a
heater plug and an induction primer are provided in the inlet manifold.
