POR QUE ALGUNS MOTORES PERKINS SÃO RUINS DE PARTIDA NO FRIO?

The engine manufacturer Perkins arrived in Brazil in the late 1950s and was very successful with its products, which were used in many vehicles such as trucks and tractors! The company's engines had an excellent reputation, being considered simple, robust and with a lot of power and torque at low revs. However, the first models had a bad reputation when it came to starting on cold days, causing a lot of trouble for owners! To start them, many resorted to tricks such as starting them with a push button and putting a torch in the intake manifold, as it was so difficult to start them in the winter, especially in the center-south of Brazil! See the video to learn why this is so difficult and the main products that made Perkins famous in Brazil! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- History of Perkins and Maxion engines:    • Como surgiram os MOTORES PERKINS e MAXION   History of Massey-Ferguson:    • Como os tratores MASSEY-FERGUSON conquista...   History of Willys Jeep in Brazil:    • Como a JEEP conquistou o BRASIL nos ANOS 50   History of Chevrolet 10 Series:    • Como a CHEVROLET SÉRIE 10 conquistou o BRA...   History of Iochpe-Maxion:    • A INCRÍVEL EMPRESA BRASILEIRA IOCHPE-MAXION!!   History of ethanol in Brazil:    • A HISTÓRIA DO ETANOL NO BRASIL!   History of the Ford F Series in Brazil:    • Como a FORD SÉRIE F conquistou o BRASIL   History of the Chevrolet 20 Series:    • Como a CHEVROLET SÉRIE 20 conquistou o BRA...   History of GMC:    • A HISTÓRIA dos CAMINHÕES e VEÍCULOS GMC
