While rumaging through the bottom of the Farmall pile at the local salvage yard, I come across this complete 193 diesel motor out of a 350 utility. Guy at the desk says make me an offer since I know nothing about the motor, in fact, didn't even know it was out there. It is complete with the head, pump, lines, oil pan and coolers in place and looks like it was just taken out of the tractor and put on a pallet and put in the back hole. I would like to restore a 350 row crop with a cont. diesel motor so what should I offer to be fair? I've always had a love for that era tractor? Could use some advice and counseling here guys. Thanks Migraine

I would offer $50.00 and see what the owner has to say. He may take it or want more. Then you need to decide whether it's worth what he is asking. Hal

For a starting point, since neither of you know the condition, I'd say to offer whatever the going scrap iron price is for what the motor weighs. He might just take it.

Certainly an unusual find, but makes you wonder if it has some flaw such as a thrown rod that prompted it to be removed. I have no idea as to its cash value, but I'd think parted out it would be worth several hundered.

As stated the internal condition may warrant a pass, however if 10$ more than scrap, the investment will be in exploration when it is home. The engine has had some starting issues but seems economical. our neighbor and my dad bought twin 350utes in 57. ours is gas, his was Diesel. Plowing in the same field with 3-14 FH mounted plows our gasser would gain 3' in 100' on the Diesel. HHHOOOWWWEEEVVVEEERRR, the Diesel would use only 7 gal to our 10 on the same high effort day. He still has the tractor and it has had a set of injectors, and one rebuild(so has ours) without crank grind. Doit. JimN
