Zetor diesel 3011 tractor’s engine is well known for outstanding performance, long life and low maintenance. In this engine special choke system is provided which helps to start engine very easily in extreme cold weather conditions and the process to use this choke was very simple i.e. pull full hand throttle and then press choke button which was given front side of fuel injection pump. Then start the starter motor and when engine is started then choke button comes back to its initial position automatically. Apart from that there is separate chamber for mobile in fuel injection pump of tractor in which 0.16 liter of mobil oil has to be poured. This ensures long life of fuel injection pump i.e. in other tractors common oil is used for engine and injection pump and if engine oil is not changed for long intervals then oil losses its ability to lubricate and viscosity then if that oil is transferred in injection pump then it drastically affects the life of fuel injection pump but this is not so in case of Zetor diesel 3011 tractor’s engine.
