I said that because the farm guys could tell you just by looking at it. There were combines that had 230's and 262's. Awhile back I was looking at engine remans for fork trucks they listed 230,s still available I don't remember seeing 262's. Just punch in fork truck engines on internet. BTW there is a couple guys that have put them in wd's. |

| Hi. I worked at AC from 1977-1986, and I saw not too many engines made at the old Buda plant. They were using continental Engines except for Lift trucks that were made made for Ford motor Co. They insisted on us using their engines, I hope that helpsd you |

| That engine would be pre 1977 most likely mid to late 60's |

The engine is either a Buda 230 or 262. I don't know of a way to externally tell the difference if the ID plate is missing. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |
