VALMET 255 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Valmet 255 is a robust tractor equipped with a 3-cylinder diesel engine, delivering 53 hp at 2350 RPM from a 3.3 L displacement, which provides a good balance of power and fuel efficiency for various agricultural tasks. Its bore and stroke dimensions of 4.252 x 4.724 inches enable effective torque characteristics, making it suitable for heavy-duty operations like plowing or hauling. However, potential challenges include maintenance complexity associated with older tractor models and limited power output for larger implements, making it best suited for smaller farms or specific tasks rather than extensive agricultural operations.
