ENGINE DETAIL
The Minot 20 tractor features a compact 3-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 1.2 L, delivering 20 hp at 2300 RPM, suitable for light agricultural tasks and small property maintenance. Its liquid-cooled system aids in thermal management, enhancing engine longevity, while the electric starter and glow plug pre-heating facilitate reliable starting in colder conditions. However, with a modest power output and low oil (3.7 qts) and coolant (10.6 qts) capacities, it may struggle with heavy-duty applications or extended operating periods without regular maintenance checks.
