ENGINES OVERVIEW

The International Harvester 674 tractor offers a choice between a 3.9L diesel engine, known for its fuel efficiency and torque output, and a 3.3L gasoline engine, which provides quicker throttle response. The diesel variant excels in heavy-duty applications and long operating hours, while the gasoline engine may be preferable for lighter tasks due to its lower initial cost and ease of maintenance. Consider the operational demands and fuel availability when choosing between the two engines to optimize performance for your specific agricultural or construction needs.

ENGINE DETAIL 1

The International Harvester 674 is powered by a D239 diesel engine, providing robust performance with a displacement of 3.9L and a compression ratio of 16:1, ideal for efficient fuel combustion and torque generation. The dual-stage dry air cleaner enhances engine longevity by improving air filtration, making it suitable for dusty field conditions. Operating at a rated RPM of 2400, this tractor balances power and efficiency, making it versatile for various agricultural applications but could face challenges in high-altitude settings where air density decreases.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER 674 ENGINES

The International Harvester 674 tractor is equipped with either a 3.9L 4-cylinder diesel engine or a 3.3L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, offering versatility in fuel options. The 20-gallon (75.7L) fuel tank provides extended operation time, advantageous for larger agricultural tasks without frequent refueling. Consider the diesel engine for better fuel efficiency and torque, particularly in heavy-duty applications, while the gasoline variant may appeal for lighter, cost-sensitive operations.
