ENGINE DETAIL

The International Harvester T-6 tractor features a robust C-248 gasoline engine with a displacement of 4.1L, offering a favorable power-to-weight ratio for various agricultural applications. Its bore and stroke dimensions (3.875 x 5.25 inches) facilitate a longer stroke, which can enhance torque delivery at low RPMs (rated at 1450 RPM), making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks like plowing or tilling. However, an oil capacity of 9 quarts and a coolant capacity of 38 quarts should be monitored closely to ensure engine longevity and optimal performance under prolonged use, especially in demanding conditions.

MECHANICAL

The International Harvester T-6 crawler tractor features a robust tracked design, enhancing traction and stability on uneven terrain, ideal for agricultural or construction applications. Its open operator station promotes visibility and comfort but may expose the operator to harsh weather conditions. While its crawler configuration can provide superior grip, it may result in higher ground pressure, potentially causing soil compaction in sensitive environments.
