Massey Ferguson 1190 Extra Coolant Notes

Engine horsepower 60 hp | 44.7 kW
Engine displacement 2.8 L | 169 cu in
Capacity note For the Massey Ferguson 1190, the listed cooling system capacity is 2.4 gal | 9 L. Buy slightly more coolant than the exact capacity so you have enough for topping off after air burps out.
Mixture note Use the coolant type listed above and match the antifreeze/water mix to the operator manual and local freezing conditions.
Radiator cap note The radiator cap pressure listed for the Massey Ferguson 1190 is 7 psi | 48 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 1190 Coolant FAQs

How much coolant does a Massey Ferguson 1190 take?

The Massey Ferguson 1190 takes 2.4 gal | 9 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 1190 coolant capacity normal?

Yes, 2.4 gal | 9 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 1190?

This is a manageable refill amount. A 2.4 gal | 9 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 1.2 gal of concentrate and 1.2 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 2 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.

What coolant should I use in a Massey Ferguson 1190?

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.

Can I use a different radiator cap on a Massey Ferguson 1190?

The listed cap pressure is 7 psi | 48 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.

When should the Massey Ferguson 1190 coolant be changed?

Use whichever limit comes first for the Massey Ferguson 1190: every 6,000 hours or 6 years. Low-hour tractors can still age out on time, because corrosion protection gets weaker even when the coolant still looks clean.

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.
