Anyone know what a Perkins 3cyl AG3.152 weights? ie, can two guys get this paperweight into the back of my truck to get it to a machine shop? It's got visible pitting around the liner / crown of the stuck piston and thinking this tractor will be right after forcing it though a couple of revolutions is overly optimistic.
While it's true that the engine is heavy, probably more than 400 pounds as mentioned previously, if you remove the cylinder head, flywheel, and other heavy components, the weight will be reduced to the point that two grown men of average strength should be able to easily lift it into the bed of a pickup truck. For example, my Massey 135 tractor has a Continental Z-145 engine which I believe is a bit heavier than the Perkins 3 cylinder engine, and I can lift the short block by myself. Granted, I wouldn't be carrying it anywhere unless I wanted to risk hurting myself, but I can lift it.
