Engine horsepower 80.5 hp | 60 kW
Engine displacement 3.3 L | 201 cu in
Capacity note For the Massey Ferguson 2440, the listed cooling system capacity is 2.6 gal | 9.8 L. Buy slightly more coolant than the exact capacity so you have enough for topping off after air burps out.
Mixture note 50/50 antifreeze and water.
Radiator cap note The radiator cap pressure listed for the Massey Ferguson 2440 is 15 psi | 103 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 2440 Coolant FAQs

How much coolant does a Massey Ferguson 2440 take?

The Massey Ferguson 2440 takes 2.6 gal | 9.8 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 2440 coolant capacity normal?

Yes, 2.6 gal | 9.8 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 2440?

This is a manageable refill amount. A 2.6 gal | 9.8 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 1.3 gal of concentrate and 1.3 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 2440?

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 50/50 antifreeze and water, so do not run straight water except as a short emergency move.

How much concentrate and water does a Massey Ferguson 2440 need?

With the listed 50/50 antifreeze and water mix, a full 2.6 gal | 9.8 L refill works out to about 1.3 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 1.3 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 2440?

The listed cap pressure is 15 psi | 103 kPa. That higher-pressure cap helps raise the boiling point, but only if the radiator neck, hoses and overflow path are in good shape. A weak cap or damaged seat can still cause coolant loss.

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.
