Cockshutt 1900 With 4-53 Detroit Diesel - Startup

[Vicsonvee]

Should never start a detroit 2 stroke diesel with starting fluid! If you absolutely need starting fluid, you should only spray it when your cranking two stroke diesel engines! If your engine doesn't start on a somewhat mild day, either it has poor compression or your injection pump has an issue.

@Vicsonvee yeah , but he's a dipshit and will do that shit anyway..

[EFSforkliftguy]

after 1940.

[BlakeMason2]

What a bizarre brand name. They could never name something like that these days.

[thesandonbar]

I just LOVE that ignition key, what a blast!!!

[DieselsAndDiodes]

man that's a nice old tractor. I love the Detroit 4-53.

[martinjvp]

Reminds me of the days when I was a boy and my father used to take me to the farmer's auctions. So many things, so many tractors capturing my imagination.

[huppypuppy]

Very interesting set-up on the cooling fan for the radiator - has this tractor been repowered with the 4-53???

[duckslayer92]

No, Oliver (Which owned Cockshutt) offered the 1950 with a 4-53 and the same with the oliver 99, super 99, 990, and 1950. Mike
