I visited a local auto junkyard the other day and spotted an AC engine. I do not know what it is. Here is what I do know. It is a 6 cylinder, propane engine. It is suppose to run or it did two years ago. It came off of an oil rig. Does this engine have any worth? I hate to see good things scrapped if I can help it. Any ideas of how many horse it could be? How many cubes? Did these engine fit in any tractors? I will probably go back some time in the next week, I will look for some ID numbers if it is absolutely necessary for identification. Thanks Jake

Bucyrus Erie used allis chalmers 6 cylinders in there large cable tool rigs back in the early 50-late 60's. We have a model 60-l, that was a former oil field machine, had a 6 cyl allis, not sure what size, but it was a gas job, i do know you could get that rig with a propane or lp setup, you could also get the diesel in that rig. We have since tossed the motor, but it was a gas, magneto driven through waterpump on side, flathead, and really ran good. Not too much help, but my .02$

OK, it's not quite as bad as asking what kind of dog is brown and has 4 legs.

So how is this for helpful: it could be a 262 ci engine like used in the D-19 or C-II Gleaners or it could be a 301 ci engine like in the 190, both were available from AC in LP gas form.

It won't be an engine like in the Gleaner A, that was a GM engine not an AC engine. It won't be an engine like in the WD-45 diesel, cause that was a diesel engine and not something that would run on LP. It could be a non ag engine, I don't know what all of them were.

If you are going to take a shot in the dark at a question like this, at least be correct about the information you do give.

Oliver,
Since you are so much smarter than the rest of us, maybe you should start your own discussion forum. Or maybe you should just not post, if you can't act like a human.

My uncle bought a Gleaner Model A at an auction for salvage. It HAD a G 230 6 cyl. Allis engine on it. He sold it to someone who blew-up a G-262 to replace it. Do not tell me A"s only had Chevy engines. The A"a replacment, Model K, had the Chevy engine. Model F"s also. FYI the G-230 and G-262 use the same starter.

Could be a G-230 or a G-262. The G-262 was used on the C-II Gleaners. I have one which is LP fueled. D-19 used the 262 engine also. The G-230 was used on A Gleaners. I do not think they were stock in any tractor but i think you can put one in a WD by extending the frame.

The 230 was stock on the WD45 Diesel. that was what the diesel motor in it was, a 230 Buda diesel. If you can find a serial number on the block that would be helpful. It could also be a 301, they had LP versions on the 190xts on tractors, not sure about combines. Good luck on your search.

I saw a V8 Chevy engine once, any idea what it was? I also had a 7 hp B&S engine that ran right up until the time the rod broke and tore a big gash in the wall.

I think you get my point.

Oliver,

I always thought that when someone asked a question, and gave whatever details he/she had, that it should be taken seriously and dealt with appropriately. Jaker obviously wanted to know if Allis built more than one 6-cylinder engine - hence, if he needed to try for some ID numbers.

In other words, if you can only be a smart@$$, try keeping it to yourself.

Good luck on your motor ID. Too bad oliver couldn't give you a straight answer, or just let it go.

it was the newer F's i believe that had the chevy gas engine, because we have an F with an Allis Chalmers engine.

I havn't ran a propane engine but what ive heard is that there a slower tracter but for field work there is no real disadvantage.

we also have a 180 allis with a propane engine, I know for fact its stock because my dad bought it new, but ive asked people about it and they think im crazy.(any information would be helpful)
