Engine horsepower 50 hp | 37 kW
Engine displacement 2.5 L | 152 cu in
Capacity note For the Massey Ferguson 240S, the listed cooling system capacity is 2.7 gal | 10.2 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 240S tractor is typically 50% antifreeze and 50% water.
Radiator cap note The radiator cap pressure listed for the Massey Ferguson 240S is 7 psi | 48.3 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 240S Coolant FAQs

How much coolant does a Massey Ferguson 240S take?

The Massey Ferguson 240S takes 2.7 gal | 10.2 L of coolant. That is about normal for the compact tractor benchmark shown here, so plan it like a standard drain-and-refill rather than a tiny top-up.

Is the Massey Ferguson 240S coolant capacity normal?

Yes, 2.7 gal | 10.2 L lands about where you would expect for this tractor category. The main thing is buying enough for a complete refill plus a small top-off amount.

How many coolant jugs do I need for a Massey Ferguson 240S?

This is a manageable refill amount. A 2.7 gal | 10.2 L system needs about 3 one-gallon containers if you are using premixed coolant. If using concentrate at a 50/50 mix, plan on about 1.4 gal of concentrate and 1.4 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 3 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.

Can I mix coolant types in a Massey Ferguson 240S?

Because the listed coolant is extended-life OAT coolant, the clean move is to stay with the same approved chemistry. Do not casually mix it with old green conventional coolant; if the old coolant type is unknown, flush first or confirm what is already in the system. The listed mix is the recommended coolant mixture ratio for a Massey Ferguson 240S 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 240S need?

With the listed the recommended coolant mixture ratio for a Massey Ferguson 240S tractor is typically 50% antifreeze and 50% water mix, a full 2.7 gal | 10.2 L refill works out to about 1.4 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 1.4 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 240S?

The listed cap pressure is 7 psi | 48.3 kPa. That is a lower-pressure cap, so do not upgrade it to a higher-pressure cap just because it sounds stronger. Too much cap pressure can stress hoses, radiator seams and older seals.

Official information note

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.
