Ford York engine

The Ford York engine is an inline Ford diesel engine used in vehicles including the Ford Transit range of vans between 1972 and 1984.

The Transit was fitted with the 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine, but the engine was also available as a 3.5-litre six-cylinder engine. These were fitted in the Ford "A" series light commercial vehicles.

Both the four- and the six-cylinder engines were also used as industrial engines. The front of the crankshaft had a long section with a key to allow a full-power front PTO

They were redesigned in 1984 and the front PTO was discontinued. The 2.5 DI (direct-injection) engine was a milestone in reliability, with engines commonly reaching 250,000 miles without overhaul.
