When your TEF20’s engine starts showing its age with blow-by, oil consumption, or loss of compression, it’s likely time for a cylinder overhaul. The Ferguson TEF20, often called the “Little Grey Fergie,” revolutionized farming in the 1940s and 50s with its reliable Perkins 20 engine. This cylinder liner gives you the foundation for bringing that classic engine back to factory specs and getting your vintage workhorse running like new.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-machined liner that matches original factory bore specifications
- Heavy-duty cast iron construction designed to handle the heat cycles and stress of farm work
- Proper wall thickness for optimal heat transfer and durability
- Direct replacement that fits with standard piston and ring sets during rebuild
Built for Real Farm Work
These 20-horsepower workhorses handled everything from plowing small fields to powering sawmills and hay balers. The TEF20’s Perkins engine was built to run all day long, and with fresh liners, yours can keep doing what it was designed for – reliable, steady power for cultivation, hay work, mowing, and all the tasks that make a small farm run smoothly.
Made to Last
This liner uses the same grade of cast iron as the original, with the right balance of hardness and machinability. The bore finish is honed to proper specs for good ring seal from day one. When properly installed with the right pistons and rings, this liner will give you years of dependable service from your classic Ferguson.
Installation Notes
This is a rebuild job that requires engine disassembly and machine shop work for proper fitting. Most TEF20 engines use wet sleeves that can be pressed out and replaced, but always check your engine configuration first. A good machine shop will ensure proper protrusion height and bore finish for best results.
