It always amazes me to see how clean you keep your workplace!! I bet you could eat off that table after the engine rebuild🤣🤣 Thanks for sharing another great video Andreas! Keep them coming man
That was a very comprehensive and competent rebuild and very well explained. I am intrigued though with a couple of things, (1) Your use of grease rather than engine oil on reassembly. (2) Torque figures are normally quoted for dry threads, yet you greased/oiled some torqued fastenings - would you care to comment? Nice work.👍
Thank you for the kind words, and I'm glad you found the rebuild explanation helpful! To address your questions: 1. **Grease vs. Engine Oil on Reassembly:** I prefer to use assembly grease in certain parts during reassembly, especially on components like bearings, camshaft lobes, or anything that needs extra lubrication during the initial startup. Assembly grease helps to provide a thick film that stays in place and provides protection before the engine oil circulates properly. Engine oil, while effective for long-term lubrication, doesn’t stick as well to surfaces during assembly, which is why assembly grease can be a better choice in some cases. 2. **Torque Figures and Lubricated Threads:** You’re right-typically, torque values are quoted for dry threads. However, when oil or grease is applied to fastenings, it reduces friction, which can affect the clamping force achieved at a given torque value. That’s why, for lubricated threads, it's often necessary to adjust the torque value to account for the reduced friction. I sometimes follow specific manufacturer recommendations for lubricated fasteners or use a lower torque setting than the one specified for dry threads Thanks for pointing these out! It’s always great to dive deeper into the details.
Another banger! Andreas you make some really nice videos! I really like how you show the info specs too. So glad I found this channel, thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much!! I try to make the assembly videos as easy as possible to follow and torque-specs are usually a pain to find online...unless you have the manual in front of yourself. You're always one of the first to comment and your support means a lot! Thank YOU!!
Great video, thanks for making it. I love this engine so much. No plastic! Even a 100k new truck has a plastic oil pan, plastic intake etc. NO timing chains either! Reliable as hell
Thank you very much for your overly positive comment! I really like this engine too and all the features you listed make an engine last that much longer. Nowadays some engine components are only meant to last a certain period of time. I guess we have to live with that...or just buy an older piece of equipment haha. Thanks for watching. Regards Andreas
Brilliant video,I have a 4TNV88-D in my boat it’s currently on 4456hrs still starts first time every time never took a spanner to just service religiously.Great to see what they look like inside 🏴🇬🇧Cheers 👍
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! Your Yanmar engine is treating you well and that is a fair amount of hours, but then again if serviced regularly they should last a long time. Regards Andreas
Thanks for a great video.👍 Makes me wanna go out and find a motor to rebuild. Lol! We had a problem with our John Deere at work with motor bogging down on inclines. Coworker put new fuel filter and a electric fuel pump and it still bogged down. Next day I came in and figured it out.....was the suction line screen in fuel tank had sludge covering it. Now we can cut grass on the hill. If motor was need of repairing your video would of helped me. Thanks again. ✌️
Hello a very perfect work here you can see a lot, I have another question I have a 3TNE 74 with dismantled (not dismantled by me) defective cylinder head, have now got a good used one but how do I put it on, that the timing fit because I do not see the position camshaft greetings Andy
Hi Andy, thank for your comment. The cylinder head can only go on one way due to the pushrod holes. The timing does not happen on the top end of the engine. This is done between the crankshaft, idler and camshaft gears. On the top end of the engine, you only need to focus on the rocker arm assembly and set the correct valve lash. Cheers
Could you show how to install the fuel injectors? I question the seals on the bottom of the spray nozel. I have a top hat looking seal idk if goes on injector or not
Hi there, Unfortunately I do not have a Yanmar engine that I'm currently working on. The injector nozzle features a heat shield which is made of plastic and an aluminum crush washer. The plastic heat shield protects the injector nozzle and it's slid on first, then the crush washer. Once the injector clamp bolts are torqued, the washer should spread and hold the heat shield in place. You should install the heat shield as it protects the injector. I hope this helps, Regards Andreas
Hello, thank you for posting this video!! I have a 3TNA72UJ that I am in the process of having to rebuild. Do you know where I may get a rebuild manual? Have you any videos on one of them?
I have a broken 3tnv82a, I came across a 3tnv88f. Stupid question, is it possible to bolt this into my jd 3005? I mean, could these engine be made interchangeable?
It's very unfortunate to hear that your 3TNV82A gave up! I am not familiar with the JD and have never worked on one before, but I just did some research on it. The biggest different between the 3TNV82 (A) and a 3TNV88 (F) is the displacement. You'll be going from a 1.3L to a 1.6L, but I believe your manual transmission should be able to handle that. On the other hand, the 3TNV88 (F) is a shade larger size. Here I found a pdf file that shows the dimensions on the last page: www.yanmar.com/media/news/2019/12/10074714/tnv_series_201912.pdf Not only should you take this into consideration, but the bolt pattern of the bell housing. This could be off by just a bit and you won't be able to merge it to your tractor... With that said, I would highly recommend you reach out to Yanmar and ask them this question. They are usually very helpful and they can steer you in the right direction. Even if this is for your own personal project. I hope this helps. Regards Andreas
The injection pump shaft has a key and when you remove the gear it can only go back on one way. This means when you put your gear back on, the timing is already set between you injection pump to the timing gear and the timing gear to idler gear. According to the factory specs. you should never remove or adjust the 4 bolts that are holding the gear to the flange. This adjustment should only be made in the factory to set the correct position of the gear to the injection pump. I hope this helps. Regards Andreas
I‘m not sure how you will add another piston to this engine, because this is strictly a 3 cylinder engine. This engine was produced in 4 cylinder version.
Hello, can you please tell me what is the tolerance for the piston offset in relation to the block, the cylinder head after repair, the block was lined and removed 0.18 mm, when installing the valve gaskets they meet the cylinder, on the first and 4th cylinders, I measured the piston offset from the block to be approximately 0.20 -0.25 mm
I wouldn‘t be able to tell you that! Maybe you can contact Yanmar directly and they can give you a heads up on what to look out for. They answer technical emails very well! Regards Andreas
The injection pump is timed at cylinder number one about 15-18 degrees before top-dead center. Depending on your engine this specification might be different. You want you injection pump to inject fuel at this exact moment, so when the piston on cylinder #1 reaches top dead center the mixture combusts. I know I'm late to your comment, but I hope this helps. Cheers
I have a Yanmar YB10 mini-excavator with the 3T72L-TBS engine in it. Can you tell me where to a service manual for the engine? I’ve looked everywhere that I can think of. Thank you.
Hi there! I've been searching the web for your exact engine series and I haven't come across any service manual that corresponds with your engine. The TBS part is not really necessary, but the base engine manual would be sufficient, as your engine comes in different variations. I hope you find a service manual sometime soon. Regards Andreas
@@WorkshopRebuild I have the 3tn72 and had the #3 piston at TDC when I aligned and installed the timing gears. Am i to assume the position of the crank doesn't matter as long as all of the marks line up/ Bob in VT
Hello Curt, thank you for leaving a comment and inquiring about a restoration project. At this current moment I do not have enough time to accept work outside of what I share here on TH-cam. This is very unfortunate, as I receive this question on a daily basis in my emails, on social media platforms and here in the comment sections. Maybe there is a mechanic or JD enthusiast near you, that would love to take on the rest of your John Deere 430 project! There are multiple Facebook groups you can join that talk about John Deere garden tractors on a daily basis. I have a good feeling someone would take on your project for you. Regards Andreas
Correct, the camshaft is held by three plain bearings within the engine block. The only reason why I replaced the front one was due to wear. The other two were perfectly within spec and had no imperfections.
@WorkshopRebuild ok thanks reason why I was asking is mine is missing the back 2 I was like that's not right and the kit I ordered has 3 I watched your video and saw you replace just the front I was like maybe he knows something I don't . thanks for the reply I appreciate it.
Hi there, thank your for your inquiry! Most of the time I repair engines that are out of a vehicle or a piece of equipment and unfortunately I do not have the ability to just find a specific engine for a rebuild. Up until this day I have rebuilt two different Yanmar diesel engines (3TN75RJ & 3TNV82A) and both videos are on my channel. Since most Yanmar engines are the same, you can definitely take away something from both videos to assist you with your repairs. If I ever work on any other Yanmar diesel engines, you'll see that on my channel in the future. Thanks again for your comment. Regards Andreas
The washers you're referring to are called VALVE LASH CAPS. When properly matched, valve lash caps provide an increased path for your race engine's roller rocker arm nose roller to glide back and forth over. This prevents the rocker arm from getting too close to the edge of the top of the valve tip, which will result in damage to both the rocker arm and the valve. I hope this helps. Regards Andreas
Hi there! I am just rebuilding my personal engine and this is totally out of my hands. Get in touch with your favourite engine manufacturer and discuss this topic with them. There is always room to expand businesses. Regards Andreas
