: : Z134 gasoline engine with cracked block need to know if it can be welded.where you can buy 3cylender used perkins engine to fit TO35
: MF35, Ferguson TO35, not MH. MH 50, yes.
: You can weld block, but might be better off with good used block. Don't go diesel. 3-cylinder Perkins junk. Only 4 cylinder like in 65 any good.
All Continental Z 134 engine blocks bust, most often between the cylinders. The reason is because of poor engineering and putting the cylinders too close together. Pittsburg Tractor has some welded blocks and you can find welded blocks all over the web. The welded blocks may be all right if they have not been cracked through the main (center main).If you can't find one, email me tomorrow and will give you other places if you want. I aam doing the same thing now. Wish I had never heard of Massey Furgeson.
