The motor number can be found stamped on the engine block of a Massey Ferguson tractor. Depending on the model, the location of the engine block and the number will vary.
On the 1532 and other compact models, the engine block can generally be found at the rear of the tractor and the motor number will be stamped into the block near the oil filter. On other models, it may be located on the side of the block near the rear of the tractor.
For the larger Massey Ferguson models (such as the 4608, 5609, 6499 and 5610), the engine block can be found near the center of the tractor and the motor number is usually stamped near the starter motor.
In some cases, the motor number may be covered with a protective plate, in which case it may be necessary to remove the plate to read the motor number.
