ENGINE DETAIL
The JCB Fastrac 3170 features a robust Cummins 6BTAA engine, delivering 173 hp and a substantial torque of 579.7 lb-ft at 1300 RPM, making it well-suited for demanding agricultural tasks. The dual dry element air cleaner enhances engine efficiency and longevity, while the engine’s 5.9L displacement offers a balance of power and fuel efficiency. However, at 2200 RPM, while the power peak is achieved, lower RPM operation can lead to underutilization of the engine's torque characteristics in heavy-load scenarios.
