Deutz DX 7.10

Air cooled deutz engines are as good as any give them clean oil,fuel and air and they will run for ever.

Ford 6600 never had problems with porous blocks??

IH never had problems with porous liners??

I worked for a plant hire company that had deutz engines in compressors and as long as you gave them clean fluids and set the tappets they would run for 12000 hrs +[/quote

Case 5100's are good old buses. Replace front pto chain every 3000 hours and youre laughing. Non turbo models are a bit gutless but solid reliable tractors. Fords did suffer from porous blocks, got one in pieces at the moment, but normally on the smaller engines, bigger ones were usually alright.
