ENGINE DETAIL
The White 6144 tractor features a robust CDC-Cummins 6BTA5.9 engine, renowned for its durability and efficiency in agricultural applications due to its turbocharged and aftercooled design. With a displacement of 5.9L and a compression ratio of 16.5:1, this engine ensures excellent torque delivery at its rated RPM of 2200, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks. However, its reliance on a direct injection fuel system and two-paper element air cleaner may necessitate regular maintenance to optimize performance and compliance with emissions standards.
