From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
LTC 1.6-liter engine in a 1988 Ford Escort

The Ford LT engine (sometimes referred to as the "Dagenham") is a 1.6-litre diesel power inline-four engine used in the Ford Escort as well as its Orion and Escort Van derivatives. It was also installed in the Ford Fiesta Mark 2.

Design

[edit]

The LT was designed from the beginning exclusively to be a diesel engine, eliminating any compromises required for a design also intended to run on petrol.[1] It was built exclusively at the Ford Dagenham plant. Design work was carried out with the help of German diesel specialists Deutz, who already had a relationship with Ford in providing engines for the heavier-duty Ford Cargos.[1] Output is 40 kW (54 PS; 54 hp) at 4800 rpm. The crankshaft has five bearings and the glowplugs were of the quicker in-cylinder type, reducing pre-heating times to between 7 and 12 seconds depending on the outside temperature.[2]
