1952 Fordson E83W - Start up
A quick video showing a cold start of the 1952 Fordson. At the start you’ll see me priming the fuel from the tank to the carb with the primer lever on the fuel pump. Once it has fuel she fires up straight away. The ticking is the one new (and terribly designed) lifter from small fords. It annoys me all the time but there is little I can do about it now.
About 1952 Ford
The Ford line of cars was refreshed for 1952, although remaining similar to the all-new 1949 Fords. This time, curved one-piece windshield glass joined a new "Mileage Maker" straight-6 engine with 101 hp. The 226 CID (3.7 L) L-head straight-6 was replaced by an overhead valve 215 CID (3.5 L) Mileage Maker with 101 hp (75 kW), while the old 239 CID (3.9 L) Flathead V8 remained with 110 hp (82 kW).
