[AT] Two variations of Standard diesel used in Fergusons

[James Peck]

The gasoline Continental engines had a reputation for cracking. I never saw it.

They could be hand cranked and my dad had a crank. It was kept hanging by putting the long end down next to the hydraulic lift lever.

Could the 23C be hand cranked?

-So Thomas, are the 20C and 23C the two variations of Standard diesel engines you mention?

Standard Vanguard 80mm and 85mm 4-Cyl Petrol or Kero Engine
Standard Vanguard 20C 4-Cylinder Diesel Engine ​
Standard Vanguard 87mm 4-Cyl Petrol ​
Standard Vanguard 23C 4-Cyl Diesel Engine

I had been unaware that the 23C had been used in TO35s assembled in Detroit until this thread came along.

My understanding is that Standard started out assembling TE20s using Continental Z120 engines and that Standard then used the Z120 as the starting point for their engine. What is your understanding?

This Australian source carries parts for 5 Standard engines including the 23C. In my opinion they do not sell rotary injection pumps, high pressure diesel fuel lines, and injectors because those are available though fuel injection dealers.
