ENGINE DETAIL

The Muir-Hill 101 tractor features a 6-cylinder diesel engine with a notable displacement of 5.9 L, providing reliable power at 108 hp and significant torque of 253.5 lb-ft at 1500 RPM, ideal for heavy-duty applications. Its 16.5:1 compression ratio facilitates efficient fuel combustion, while the liquid-cooled system ensures optimal operating temperatures, enhancing longevity and performance. However, the relatively low rated RPM of 2500 may limit its speed in certain applications, making it more suited for tasks requiring sustained torque rather than rapid acceleration.
