Please Help, Do we have TE 30 or TEA ?? (Alberta Canada)

We know its about aprox 30 horse power..Give or take a few. We just put
on clutch fan which seem to give it more airflow through the rad (which seem
to help.We know the tractor is made in England. and I got as much as the numbers of it as I could. Here is what the plate looks like/reads

I can't tell what is after the 3. Its had something droped on it (got Nick in it)
The 'A' after the TE maybe questionable too.. Somebody may have just punched
in the ' A' so it reads clearer?

We know its is Wakashall Engine (not sure how spell that)
On the Timming belt cover it reads (looks like) : Warshall / could also be Marshall
The Oilfilter plate has " TECALMIT " on it
on the engine block it has (right side) : OA12361 500508
Behind our altantor (which was Generator): 3112-2

The engine block also has a ' 6 ' in it, Near the back of engine (close to clutch)

But yes so far we are almost sure its a Waukeshau engine. Yes it does have the zenith carb in right place.
We know its not stander engine in it.. As far I know its not a Stander engine, Its not and this tractor was built in England
(meaning it British) The old generator and battery was backwards. It was Pos as ground. We switched it over to alternator Pos is and Neg is ground now (using older motercraft Alt)

All the # I have are posted above. I looked on the engen block
and there is no S stamped anywhere that I can find. There looks like a ' ( 6 ) 'stamped on it ( Just as it looks)
but its not S 100% sure on that..

All the #'s I have are on my post above, the only thing is the Serial # of engine I have in my first post, 0A12361 - 500508
The 0 Could be a D but it hard to see.. Maybe DA12361-500508 (behind the Zenith carb)
That prety much it.. I'v not found any other #'s yet.

My dad who used to worked for Ryder forklift says, he knows Zenith carbs were used
in Ryderforklift. and they were also English made..( British) And were later brought over to us (Canada/Usa)

We are prety sure its a Waukeshaw engine. and the sieral # TEA 3?0417 We're assuming for now its either a TEA ??? or TE 20 or TE 30 (Something) 1953-54

I do have pictures. Not great ones but I'll see about getting more when it warms up more.

We also know the front axle is not orginal. We have feeling tractor (owner before) may have
broke the orginal front bars. But as far we know Everything else is orginal on it.
About 30 hp, 4 gears and on the gear box is is also a S (which be 5th gear if was a gear there)
Stander PTO drive on it., With engaged/disaged. Its a very basic tractor.. I wish it had High/Low gear on it. Wish we could put one on it

A friend from another website posted my picture for me (Many thanks Jim I hope you don't mind)
at www.picturetrail.com/jim_w

Select "Chester's tractor" to view my pictures. The one picture (last I think) is
mirrored.

I have a TEA 20 and your Tractor engine(manifold, etc.) looks the same as mine, a Standard Engine. The only difference that I see is in the carb. Yours looks like a Zenith 24T-2. Mine is a Zenith 28G. The adjustments for your carb are as follows, When the engine is hot adjust the slow running jet (the small screw type at the top of the carb)approx. 1 turn open. If you get any black smoke from the exhaust then turn screw in an anti-clockwise direction until it runs cleanly and evenly.

Then adjust the main jet(the knurled knob at the bottom right) 2 turns anti-clockwise then adjust to suit driving conditions.

By what you have said in another post though you may need to over haul the carb first to get it running right in the first place. Make sure you clean every little opening and orifice inside the carb and you will probably have to make your own gaskets. I would also suggest that you install a gas line filter too. There is usually a lot of gunk in the gas tank that will get through the sediment bowel and muck up the carb again.

I find it hard to believe that anyone would replace the Standard engine with something else. To much trouble and work. Field engineering only goes so far.

The Stamped A in TE-A is like mine too. I have seen it Stamped in on two other TEA's aswell. You can go to the following site for an excellent over view of what all the numbers and letters mean.

Try using a magnify glass to see what that second number is. At present your tractor could be a 52 to a 54.

As stated by others you can get a manual from the market place link on this site.

From the picture it looks like your Radius Rod is bent a bit. You should be able to get it straightened at a machine shop with a press. There is a bit of a trick to the removal and replacement. You can e-mail me for the info if you intend to fix it. Also looks like your steering drag link has been broken and welded back together too. Your tractor has had a hard life I'll bet.

Take care

My guess is that at some time in the tractor's life, the original (Standard or Continental) engine came a cropper and died. The Waukeshau was probably a replacement that (a) fitted and (b) was handy and (c) was right for someone's budget.

Over here there have been all sorts of 'conversions' done, and I'm planning one on mine for one day. She who must (sometimes) be obeyed has a car with a 2 litre Perkins Direct Injection turbo diesel in it. That would go nicely in my TED, and be 'shorter' than the Perkins P6 (6 cylinder) conversions that have also been done.

Wonder what the speed rating on agricultural tyres is!!

So if it is TEA (1952 2085) and does not stander engine.Then Great..
We need find out so can get a proper manual

Thanks

As for parts,., That why I'm here.. I need find out what model we have so we can go about finding
the right manual so we can order parts if needed.

But were hoping next spring to totaly pull her apart, paint her up and fix the leaks and what nots.. Yeah Were guessing she around 30hp
Give or take a few..

Crossfield,Ab is closer to us.. Then Calgary.

Ps this site I found another site early who also has exzact tractor we have. I hope the website guy dont mind me posting his
link here
