ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 2604H tractor features a robust turbocharged 3-cylinder diesel engine with a compact 2.6L displacement, providing optimal torque and efficiency for agricultural tasks. Its Tier IV emissions compliance, aided by exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), ensures reduced environmental impact while maintaining performance at a gross power output of 45hp at 2000 RPM. Advantages include enhanced fuel efficiency with the electronic high-pressure common rail system, though users may face potential challenges in maintenance and parts availability for the advanced emissions control technologies.
