M52a2 lds 465 1-a

[panzerwillie]

What litter and HP is the multifuel engine LDS-465 -1-A thats on the 5 ton tractors thank you

 

[armytruck63]

I believe it is 205 to 210 hp, definitely more than the LDT-465 engines found in M35A2's.

468 cu in = approx. 7.7 Liters

 

[gringeltaube]

From the books: 175 hp at 2600rpm, 425 ft lb at 1800rpm, 478cu in. = 7.833 L displ.

thank you for all the replys looking to buy a M52A2 , did some of those come with the overdrive 5th gear o only with strait 5th grear, also does anyone know the fuel filters part # looking at a truck in ohio want to make sure put some new filters for the drive to miami florida, if the deal goes througth unless i find another but all i see 4sale is M818

 

[panzerwillie]

well i would think it would have a little more HP than 175 but i gues i can tweek it a little , now this engines are non intercool i see on pictures that the engine coolant runs througth the intake unless there is some type of heat exchanger but i gues it would keep it at the engine temperture

That is correct. Believe it or not, the coolant circulating through there cools the air charge. Bjorn had posted numbers here at one time.

yes only to the temperature of the engine, i seen my 6bt come out of the turbo up 400 degrees under full load on a hard clime, yes after the intercooler i see 100 degrees going to to the egine so with this type of set up i gues the air temp will alwasy be at coolant temperatrure, now does it have a radiator type fins inside or its just a small area be intrested to cut one open and see

Mine is a 210 hp (at something crazy like 2800 rpm's). Most are direct drive. A plate on the left hand side of the dash will tell you which transmission is in it.

Willie, I have to pull an exhaust manifold here shortly. The intake will come off with it. I will let you know soon!

Careful, there are some "experts" out there that will tell you that if you have a multi with the direct drive transmission, that you have the wrong transmission.

OMG, a M52A2 from ohio to miami?????? You cant find one closer???

 

[panzerwillie]

great let me know what you see when you remove it , and so far i driven 2 m52a2 and they both have direc t 5th gear so i think its a more standar deal plus they have 6.44 gears compare to the m818 that have 6.72 , does anyone know where to get fuel filters i can take with to replace the ones on the tractor before my road trip , if i don't find another one for sale i will probably get the one upnorth will see thanks for all the help

 

[panzerwillie]

i being looking all i see are M818 there are a few in ftlauderdale but they are ruff

Fuel filter numbers are the same for the 2 1/2 ton trucks. The numbers for most brands are listed here on this site in the resources section. I use wix filters. 33511 and 33512. These filters are also used on detriot diesels. So most truck parts places will have them.

 

[panzerwillie]

thank you for the post, now this 2 numbers i t takes one of each or either number will work , just trying to get ready for my trip unless i find one closer
thanks again

 

[gimpyrobb]

When they bring out the filters, you want one of the short ones and 2 of the tall ones. Where in Ohio is the truck? I am in Cincinnati and might be able to help get her ready to go home.

 

[panzerwillie]

thank you for the offer will be great if its not to far for you 30 miles from columbus i think he said london ohio , ok so i need 1 short and 2 long ones , will pick them up at the store , there a fellow here in the forum that has a m818 for sale just waiting on some pictures will keep every posted i do like the M52A2

 

[Recovry4x4]

The M818 and M52A2 both share the same 6.44 gearsets. The M39s, M809s and M900s all used this gear with only a handful of exceptions and those has 10.26 gears. Oldgoat, is that 210 HP from the dyno or is that number listed somewhere? The only Multifuel to eclipse the 200HP mark was the LDS 465-2 that came in the M656, M757 family. Curious minds want to know. Now I'm no 5 ton expert at all, matter of fact, I've not owned one for nearly 20 years but I thought the primary fuel filter was different but don't quote me on that.

Willie, Roger in London is a good guy. Kipman from here on the site does some work for him once in a while. Let me know when you will be up this way. It will be good to meet more members.

ON THE OTHER HAND, if you wanted, I might be able to drive or tow it down to the Ga rally. Just a thought.

 

[panzerwillie]

glad to hear that his a good guy, he's bein good to me in the phone and e-mails if i could pick it tomorrow i would, however i need to plan it correct, when is the rally in GA
thanks
