ENGINES OVERVIEW
The Fordson All-Around tractor features a 4.4L 4-cylinder engine available in both kerosene and gasoline variants, providing flexibility depending on fuel availability and cost. The kerosene option may offer better fuel efficiency, which can be advantageous in extensive farming operations, but it may also require additional starting procedures and adjustments for cold weather use. If you prioritize lower operating costs and easier fuel sourcing, the gasoline version may be more convenient, despite potentially higher fuel consumption.

ENGINE DETAIL 1
The Fordson All-Around tractor features a kerosene-powered, 4-cylinder engine with a displacement of 267 ci (4.4 L), delivering 25 hp at a low rated RPM of 1100, which suggests efficient torque output suitable for heavy soils or plowing tasks. Its bore and stroke dimensions (4.125"x5.00") indicate a long-stroke design, enhancing low-end power but may limit high RPM performance. Ideal for agricultural operations in less demanding speed applications, the tractor's dependence on kerosene may present challenges in fuel accessibility and efficiency compared to gasoline alternatives.

ENGINE DETAIL 2
The Fordson All-Around tractor features a 4-cylinder, 267 ci (4.4 L) gasoline engine with a bore and stroke of 4.125x5.00 inches, providing a robust torque curve ideal for PTO applications. Operating at a rated RPM of 1100 ensures low-speed power, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks like plowing and tilling. However, its relatively low RPM may limit its operational efficiency in applications requiring higher speeds, which could be a consideration for varied farming scenarios.

TRANSMISSION
The Fordson All-Around tractor features a 3-speed forward and 1-speed reverse gear system, offering basic versatility for various agricultural tasks. This gear configuration allows for improved traction and control in different operational scenarios, which is essential for handling diverse field conditions. However, with limited gear options, operators might face challenges in optimizing performance for more specialized tasks, particularly on varied terrain.

MECHANICAL
The Fordson All-Around tractor’s 4x2 2WD chassis provides simplicity and ease of maintenance, suitable for light agricultural tasks. An open operator station enhances visibility and operator comfort but may expose the driver to environmental elements. The 3-speed gear transmission allows for adaptability in various tasks; however, it may not offer the precision and control found in modern multi-speed transmissions for more demanding applications.

FORDSON ALL-AROUND TIRES
The Fordson All-Around tractor equipped with 42x12 steel agricultural rear wheels offers enhanced durability and traction on a variety of terrains, especially in muddy or uneven fields. However, the steel wheels may result in a harsher ride compared to rubber alternatives, potentially affecting operator comfort. Ideal for heavy-duty applications, this setup maximizes performance in soil cultivation and heavy pulling tasks while presenting a challenge in terms of surface protection and wear on asphalt.
DIMENSIONS
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Fordson All-Around tractor's weight of 3600 lbs (1632 kg) provides stability on various terrains but may limit mobility in soft or muddy conditions. With rear tires measuring 42x12, it offers good traction and surface contact for plowing and cultivating tasks. However, the tire width and overall weight could lead to soil compaction, necessitating careful management in sensitive areas.
