Description
If your Ford tractor’s oil pressure light has been flickering or you’ve noticed low pressure on the gauge, your oil pump might be calling it quits. When these Fords start showing their age, the oil pump is often the first thing to let you know—and ignoring it can turn a routine repair into a complete engine rebuild. This rotor-type pump gets your engine’s lifeblood flowing again, delivering the 100 PSI your engine needs to keep all those moving parts happy.
What You’re Getting
- Rotor-type design pumps oil more efficiently than the old gear-type pumps
- Hex drive shaft mates directly with your engine’s oil pump drive
- 100 PSI pressure rating matches factory specifications for proper lubrication
- Works with both 144 and 172 cubic inch diesel engines in these tractor series
- Direct replacement that bolts right in without modifications
Built for Real Farm Work
This pump handles the Ford workhorses that built American agriculture—the 501, 601, 701, 801, and 901 series, plus the popular 2000 and 4000 models from the late ’50s through mid ’60s. These tractors are still earning their keep on farms everywhere, running everything from bush hogs and hay equipment to loader work and general chores. The diesel engines in these machines are nearly bulletproof when they get proper oil pressure.
Made to Last
The rotor design in this pump is a step up from the original gear-type pumps some of these tractors came with. It moves more oil with less wear on the internal components, which means longer life and more consistent pressure. The housing and internals are built to handle the heat and pressure cycles of hard-working farm engines.
Installation Notes
This is an engine-out job that requires splitting the tractor, so plan on a weekend project or a trip to your mechanic. The hex drive engages the same way as your original pump, so no timing adjustments are needed. If you’re converting from the old gear-type to this rotor design, make sure you have the necessary conversion parts installed first—the drive systems are different.
