International Harvester TD-18A

The International Harvester TD-18A is a powerful diesel tractor built for tough jobs. It has a big 6-cylinder engine that can handle heavy work. The engine is liquid-cooled, which helps it stay at the right temperature even during long days in the field. This tractor has a gear transmission with 6 forward gears and 2 reverse gears. This gives the driver good control over speed and power. The TD-18A uses mechanical clutch steering, which is simple and reliable. It's a large machine, measuring 166 inches long, 95 inches wide, and 106 inches tall. The tractor starts with a gasoline-start system, which can be helpful in cold weather.

The engine also has a high compression ratio of 15.5:1, which means it can get a lot of power from its fuel.
