ENGINES OVERVIEW
The CO-OP E2 tractor is powered by either a Continental 2.0L or 2.3L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing a balance of power and efficiency for various agricultural tasks. Key advantages include a compact design allowing for maneuverability in tight spaces and lower emissions compared to diesel engines; however, fuel consumption may be higher during heavy-duty operations. Notably, the choice of engine displacement can influence torque delivery, with the 2.3L engine typically offering improved performance for larger implements or more demanding tasks.

ENGINE DETAIL 1
The CO-OP E2 tractor features a 124 ci (2.0 L) liquid-cooled Continental 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing moderate power suitable for light agricultural tasks. An oil bath air cleaner enhances filtration efficiency, although maintenance may be more demanding compared to dry options. The 6-volt starter system may present challenges in cold-start performance, necessitating attention in colder environments or when using accessories.
| Description | Continental/gasoline/4-cylinder/liquid-cooled/The Continental 124 was the original engine used on the Cockshutt 20, installed on the first 863 tractors (serial numbers 101 to 963). It was replaced with a larger Continental 140. |

ENGINE DETAIL 2
The CO-OP E2 tractor features a Continental 140 gasoline 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 140 ci (2.3 L) and a compression ratio of 6.75:1, providing moderate power suitable for light to medium agricultural tasks. With a rated RPM of 1800, this engine offers efficiency and durability, although the relatively low compression may limit power output compared to modern engines. The oil bath air cleaner enhances engine longevity by effectively filtering dust and debris, making this tractor advantageous for environments with heavy dirt exposure but may require more maintenance than dry filters.
| Description | Continental/gasoline/4-cylinder/liquid-cooled/The Continental 140 was the second engine used on the Cockshutt model 20. The 140 was used in the middle of the 1952 production year, starting on tractor serial number 963. |

CO-OP E2 ENGINES
The CO-OP E2 tractor is equipped with either a Continental 2.0L or 2.3L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing a balance of efficiency and power for various agricultural tasks. The 2.3L variant may offer slightly higher torque, beneficial for heavy-duty applications, while both engines deliver lower emissions compared to diesel counterparts. However, gasoline engines typically have higher operating costs and fuel consumption, which should be considered for long-term use scenarios.

TRANSMISSION
The CO-OP E2 tractor features a simple [-|-] gear type with 4 forward and 1 reverse gear, providing basic functionality for light agricultural tasks. This gear configuration allows for easier maneuverability in tight spaces but may lack the versatility and power needed for more demanding applications. It's ideal for small farms or hobbyists, but users should consider potential limitations in heavy-duty scenarios.

| Gears | 4 forward and 1 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The CO-OP E2 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, making it suitable for light-duty tasks on flat terrain but limiting its traction in challenging conditions. The independent mechanical contracting band brakes provide efficient stopping power, although maintenance may be more frequent than hydraulic alternatives. With a simple 4-speed gear transmission, this tractor is user-friendly but may lack the versatility required for varied agricultural applications compared to models with more advanced transmission options.

CO-OP E2 TIRES
The CO-OP E2 tractor features Ag front tires sized 5.00-15 and Ag rear tires at 11-24, providing a balance between traction and ground clearance. The larger rear tires enhance stability and lifting capacity, essential for heavy-duty agricultural tasks. However, the relatively narrow front tires may impact steering precision in softer soils, necessitating careful navigation in varied terrain scenarios.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The CO-OP E2 tractor, weighing 2,820 lbs, is equipped with front tires sized 5.00-15 and rear tires at 11-24, providing a balanced weight distribution for stability and traction. The relatively light weight makes it suitable for small to medium-sized farms, offering ease of maneuverability in confined spaces. However, tire size may limit its performance on uneven terrain, potentially necessitating additional modifications for optimal traction and stability in more rugged applications.
