I am considering a ferguson 35 tractor with a 23c four cylinder standard diesel engine, originally a grey and gold paint scheme. It will be used as a run about tractor for hauling fruit bin trailers in an Australian
sub tropical climate Citrus orchard, driven by itinerant fruit pickers, so needs to be reliable and largely indestructable. A partially restored mf 135 with a 3cyl perkins has survived thus far. The 23c owner says the
machine all functions well but can be difficult to start, ive heard that this engine has a poor reputation, can any one tell me why? and how could its poor starting be remedied simply, and, or are there other issues
inherent? I would appreciate any comments thanks.
