I am helping sell the neighbor's machinery and they have a MF 540 combine. It only has 1900 hours but the clutch sticks. It was always shedded up until 3 years ago and has really went downhill since. It ran great the last time it was used. It's going to be hard to sell because no one around here runs a MF combine anymore since the nearest dealer is close to 750 miles away, and they were not popular to begin with. We have considered selling the low hour engine out of it and scrapping the rest of the combine. All I know about the motor is that it is a Perkins Diesel. I think that it is a 4 cyl. and turbo but can't remember. What it the engine displacement and what MF model tractors, if any will it fit? Thanks everyone.

I don't recall perkins ever putting a turbo on a 4-318 and the guys that put em on after market didn't have much luck with the head gskets staying seated.

It is a Perkins A 4-318. This engine was used in
the tractors 285,1080,1085. Whether any difference
I don't know w/o more checking but should inter-
change.
