ENGINE DETAIL
The Farmall BMD tractor features a robust International Harvester 4-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 247.7 ci (4.1L), providing strong torque ideal for heavy-duty tasks. Its bore and stroke of 3.875x5.25 inches (98x133 mm) indicate a long stroke design, favoring low-end power for efficient tilling and plowing. The electric starter enhances usability in colder conditions, though potential challenges include ensuring battery maintenance for reliability in high-demand agricultural scenarios.

MECHANICAL
The Farmall BMD tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, providing good maneuverability in flat terrain but may struggle in adverse conditions such as mud or hills. Its mechanical steering system offers direct control, though it could lack the finesse of power-assisted systems, leading to operator fatigue over extended periods. The 5-speed gear transmission allows for versatility in speed selection, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks, though shifting may require more effort compared to models with automatic transmission.
