Built for Real Farm Work

These Ford 3-cylinder tractors are everywhere – the 2000, 3000, and 4000 series. They’re the do-everything tractors on small to medium farms, perfect for loader work, mowing, raking, and light tillage. Whether you’re running a compact utility tractor for daily chores or putting one through seasonal fieldwork, proper exhaust flow keeps these reliable engines running at their best.

Made to Last

The 3-cylinder Fords have an exhaust crossover in the manifold for cold weather starting, so this gasket sees serious heat. This manifold is built to handle those temperature extremes, from cold morning starts to full-power operation on hot summer days. The casting design provides the durability needed for thousands of heat cycles without cracking around critical areas.

Installation Notes

Changing a manifold gasket is a decent afternoon project if you’re handy with wrenches. You’ll need to remove the air cleaner, disconnect the exhaust pipe, and unbolt the manifold – not terrible on these tractors since everything’s pretty accessible. Begin by applying penetrating oil to old studs days before the job – they’re notorious for breaking. While you’ve got everything apart, it’s smart to replace the manifold gasket too since you’re already there.
