The Ford 4600 diesel engine, first produced in the mid-1970s, quickly established itself as one of the most dependable and efficient agricultural power units available.
Renowned for its robustness, reliability, and ease of maintenance, the 4600 remains popular among farmers and agricultural engineers to this day.
Its straightforward design ensures fewer complexities, resulting in reduced downtime and cost-effective operation.
Its enduring appeal is primarily due to its solid engineering, durable construction, and exceptional performance in a wide range of farming applications.
Whether it’s heavy-duty ploughing or routine yard work, the Ford 4600 consistently delivers impressive torque and power with remarkable fuel efficiency.
All engines are built to order, and pricing is based on rebuild of your existing engine by Timik Engines, we can expertly rebuild your Ford 2000 diesel tractor engine, ensuring the highest quality standards.
If an engine is required on an exchange basis, Timik Engines can source an engine to rebuild on an exchange basis and this will incur an additional surcharge. Please contact us with your fuel injection pump number, and the machine model it is fitted to prior to booking your engine in for remanufacture.
The engine block is bored back to standard with new liners fitted. The cylinder head is remanufactured with valve seats re-cut and new valves fitted. The crankshaft is ground to precise tolerances.
All engines are rebuilt in our clean workshop with new pistons and rings, bearings, oil pump, water pump, and complete gasket set. Fuel injection equipment is remanufactured and turbochargers replaced where applicable.
Every engine is dynamometer tested to confirm correct power output, oil pressure, and operating temperatures. Engines are painted and prepared for delivery with full documentation.
Prices exclude VAT.
Ford tractor engine blocks are prone to microscopic pores and casting voids that can allow coolant to seep into the oil over time. Block porosity treatment seals these voids using a vacuum impregnation process, where resin is drawn into any leakage paths and cured under pressure. This significantly extends engine life and reduces the risk of coolant contamination after rebuild. We recommend this treatment for all Ford engines where long-term reliability is a priority.
All engines are supplied on an exchange basis. You send us your existing engine and we return a fully remanufactured unit. If you do not have a donor engine, contact us to discuss surcharge options.
Donor engines must be complete (block, head, crankshaft, and major castings intact). Engines with severe damage may incur additional charges. Contact us before dispatch for assessment.
