Description
You’re hearing that telltale rattle from your exhaust, or maybe you’ve noticed black soot where it shouldn’t be. A failing exhaust elbow on these 3-cylinder Fords can cause vacuum leaks that mess up your fuel mixture and create problems you don’t need when there’s work to do. This TISCO replacement elbow connects your exhaust manifold to the rest of your exhaust system, directing those hot gases safely away from your engine and cab.
What You’re Getting
- Heavy-duty construction built to handle the extreme heat and vibration of farm work
- Direct replacement design that fits without modifications or adapters
- Quality materials that resist cracking from constant heat cycling
- Proper angle and diameter to maintain correct exhaust flow
- Corrosion-resistant finish that stands up to moisture and agricultural chemicals
Built for Real Farm Work
This elbow fits the workhorses of small to medium farms – Ford’s 2000, 3000, and 4000 series tractors, along with the newer 2600, 3600, 4600, and x610 models that are perfect for loader work, mowing, raking, and light tillage. These engines are nearly bulletproof when maintained right, and Ford kept the same basic exhaust design because it worked. Whether you’re running a 40-year-old 3000 or a newer 4610, this elbow handles the job.
Made to Last
This elbow is made from materials that can handle the heat cycling between cold starts and hot shutdowns. The 3-cylinder Fords have an exhaust crossover in the manifold for cold weather starting, so this part sees serious heat. Cheap elbows fail quickly in this demanding environment, but this TISCO replacement is built to provide reliable service season after season.
Good to Know
Installation is a decent afternoon project if you’re handy with wrenches – you’ll need to remove the air cleaner, disconnect the exhaust pipe, and unbolt the manifold. Clean both surfaces thoroughly since any old gasket material or dirt will cause leaks, and these 3-cylinders are sensitive to air leaks. Take your time getting the fitment right, and consider replacing gaskets while you’re in there.
