    Acceptable Hours for Yanmar 2 Cylinder Diesel

    Hello All,

    Just wondering whether 1400 hours be acceptable on a Yanmar 2 cylinder diesel small tractor with a mid mount mower fitted to it? Looks like it has only been used for mowing - not towing big trailers around with. The mowers were manufactured between 1983 - 1989. Engine 10.4KW Yanmar 635cc

    Kind regards
    Lionel

    If the fuel and air were kept clean and serviced, no problems it should be only run in. It is not how many hours but how the hours were run is more important.

    We have plenty of 4 cylinder Yanmars with over 10,000 hours on them in generators - we look after them and they don’t give us any grief.
