Hello, I recently got a Ferguson from 1950 and I suppose that it is a TE20 model.(TED136177)
The traktor has been standing unused for a very long time.
I actually don't know much about old tractors, but I want to have it run again. I would be glad if someone could give me some informations about the original engine. I was told the tractor was running with kerosene(carburin), so I also wanted to know if it is possible to have it run with standard fuel without to big modifications on the engine, or if this is anyway no problem? Thank you.

I have a similar tractor in the same shape. It seems to be a long, slow process but being able to use this bulletin board is a great help. I can't help you much about the orig. eng., but there is a helpful article somewhere in this site or on the web that explains some of the history of it.
This is a guess about the fuel, but a good guess. The tractors I read about that used kerosene generally started them with gasoline, then manually switched to kerosene. Kerosenes and other heavy fuels were used because they were cheaper, not better. I would guess that gasoline will work fine and keep your engine cleaner.
