Now that I think about it, though, I do think they used a Continental in
the
135 and 235 series of MF tractors, 4 cylinders, something like 35 hp.
Anything bigger than that in MF, though, was either a Waukesha, Perkins,
or
their own.
Massey used Continentals in a few things including combines and other
equipment.

I worked on a friend's MF, and to my surprise, it had a Cessna hydraulic
pump, used for the power steering!

Barnyard BOb -- a wealth of useless information
My father-in-law has a Massey Ferguson tractor. The nameplate on the
engine indicates that it was manufactured by Continental in Kalamazoo,
MI. The logo is the same as on my Continental IO-470s.
