I have just bought a 2140 and have read the
historical posts here trying to determine some
correct stat's. I have seen and heard everything
from 60hp to 90hp. Also would be interested in
finding production dates (mine was mfg'd in France
- serial # 506491). Shifting gears (forward to
reverse and back) is often times difficult - any
adjustment knowledge would be helpful on this subject.

The John Deere 2140 came off the assembly line at 70-75 hp rating. I know of 2 that are now running at 85 and 110 hp daily. The engines are VERY well built. As for shifting, they sometimes develope burring on the gear teeth in a certain spot. Sometimes you will have trouble shifting, and sometimes you won't. In the end you may have to replace the gears, but if you are willing to live with it, they will run for years in that condition.

The 2140 was marketed in Canada and suceeded the 2130 (US 2030) I believe them to be rated at 70 hp. The tractor would have been built in Mannhiem Germany with the engine coming from the Saran,France engine factory. They are a well built tractor, the 239 engine being quite dependable. My brother has one with over 8000 hrs on it. I would like some more info on the shifting problem-- is it only forward/reverse or all shifts with lefthand stick? Bob

2140? Is that the Canadian model number for the JD 2040? Someone enlighten me please. Also I thought that series was built in Mannhiem Germany, not France. Although I do know that some of Deeres engines were made in France. Somebody smarten me up please.

I spoke with a JD Sales rep who told me that it was made in France - the type is 4239TL03 Serial 506491CD. It is "suppose" to be a 60 hp.
