Introduction
Fiat 140-90 Row-Crop Tractor
The Fiat 140-90 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1985 and 1991, serving as a core model within the 130-90 and 160-90 series. Designed for demanding agricultural tasks, this model combines mechanical reliability with versatile configuration options for heavy-duty fieldwork.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Fiat 8065.25, a 5.9-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. It features a compression ratio of 16.5:1 and a liquid-cooling system, delivering a rated power of 136 horsepower at 2500 RPM. This engine configuration is engineered to provide consistent torque for intensive traction requirements.

Operators can choose between three transmission systems: a 16-speed synchronized transmission, a 24-speed creeper transmission, or a 16-speed partial power shift transmission featuring four power-shift gears across four ranges. The tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, equipped with power steering and differential hydraulic wet disc brakes for improved maneuverability.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 2450 psi with a pump flow capacity of 13.4 gpm (50.7 lpm). It includes three valves to support various implements. The rear hitch is a Type II category system, with an optional Type II/III configuration available, capable of lifting up to 9,750 lbs (4,422 kg).
Operator Environment
The machine comes standard with the Supercomfort cab, which includes factory-installed air conditioning to maintain operator conditions during extended field operations. The electrical system is supported by a 65-amp alternator and a 12-volt starting system.
Conclusion
