|---|---|
| Engine displacement | 1.8 L | 109.8 cu in |
| Capacity note | For the Massey Ferguson 1M.40, the listed cooling system capacity is 10.6 gal | 40.1 L. Buy slightly more coolant than the exact capacity so you have enough for topping off after air burps out. |
| Mixture note | The recommended coolant mixture ratio for a Massey Ferguson 1M.40 tractor is typically 50% antifreeze and 50% water. |
| Radiator cap note | The radiator cap pressure listed for the Massey Ferguson 1M.40 is 10 psi | 69 kPa. Do not replace it with a random cap unless the pressure rating matches. |
| Refill note | Refill slowly, run the tractor until warm with the heater circuit open if fitted, let it cool, then recheck the coolant level. Never remove a hot radiator cap under pressure. |
Massey Ferguson 1M.40 Coolant FAQs
How much coolant does a Massey Ferguson 1M.40 take?
The Massey Ferguson 1M.40 takes 10.6 gal | 40.1 L of coolant. That is well above the normal utility tractor benchmark shown here, so treat it as a full cooling-system service job, not a quick top-up.
Is 10.6 gal | 40.1 L a lot of coolant for a Massey Ferguson 1M.40?
Yes. For this tractor category, 10.6 gal | 40.1 L is well above normal. This is the sort of refill where you want all coolant on hand before draining, because stopping halfway through the job is annoying and messy.
How many coolant jugs do I need for a Massey Ferguson 1M.40?
Do not underestimate this refill. A 10.6 gal | 40.1 L system needs about 11 one-gallon containers if you are using premixed coolant. If using concentrate at a 50/50 mix, plan on about 5.3 gal of concentrate and 5.3 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 9 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.
What coolant should I use in a Massey Ferguson 1M.40?
The listed coolant is 50/50 ethylene glycol-based coolant. Ethylene glycol tells you the base coolant, but the additive package still matters on diesel engines, so match the manual or an approved equivalent. The listed mix is the recommended coolant mixture ratio for a Massey Ferguson 1M.40 tractor is typically 50% antifreeze and 50% water, so do not run straight water except as a short emergency move.
How much concentrate and water does a Massey Ferguson 1M.40 need?
With the listed the recommended coolant mixture ratio for a Massey Ferguson 1M.40 tractor is typically 50% antifreeze and 50% water mix, a full 10.6 gal | 40.1 L refill works out to about 5.3 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 5.3 gal of distilled water. If using premix, do not add extra water unless the product label says to.
Can I use a different radiator cap on a Massey Ferguson 1M.40?
The listed cap pressure is 10 psi | 69 kPa. Use the same pressure rating when replacing it. The cap is part of the cooling system, not just a lid, and the wrong rating can cause boil-over, leaks or pressure problems.
Mistakes do happen. Coolant specs can change by year, engine, market, radiator option and coolant chemistry. Check the operator manual, parts book and official masseyferguson.com website before draining, flushing or refilling the cooling system.
