Yanmar TNE Series Common Problems This Manual Covers
Yanmar TNE series engine experiences intermittent no-start or turns over slowly during cold weather operation
Check the electrical system troubleshooting guide. Inspect the battery charge level and ensure the alternator outputs the standard 15 A/V. Clean the battery terminals and verify all ground wiring connections are tight before attempting another cold start.
Manual Section: 9. TroubleshootingCooling water temperature alarm activates and warning light flashes on dashboard after startup p. 10
Check the fluid capacities chart on page 10. Verify the 3TNE84 engine cooling water level contains the required 2.0 L excluding the radiator. Inspect the drive belt for cracking or glazing, and adjust the tension to achieve 8-10 mm of flexion.
Manual Section: 2. SpecificationsOil pressure alarm sounds and engine exhaust color turns dark during operation p. 18
Stop the machine immediately and review the operating instructions on page 18. Check the dipstick and verify the 4TNE88 engine contains the correct 5.8 L oil capacity. Drain excess oil if overfilled, or inspect the lube oil system for leaks.
Manual Section: 6. Operating Your EngineHigh-pitched squealing noise from engine front cover and battery fails to charge p. 22
Inspect the fan belt tension adjustment under the periodical checks schedule on page 22. Measure the V-belt flexion and tighten the alternator bracket bolts until you achieve 8-10 mm of deflection. Replace the belt if the edges are visibly frayed.
Manual Section: 7. Periodical Checks and MaintenanceFrequently Asked Questions
How do I bleed air from a diesel engine after maintenance?
To bleed air from the fuel system, first check the fuel tank level and replenish if needed. Then, open the cocks on the oil/water separator and fuel filter. Loosen the air bleeding bolt on top of the oil/water separator by turning it 2-3 times with a screwdriver. Once clear fuel without bubbles emerges, tighten the bolt. For electromagnetic fuel pumps, turn the starter switch key to ON for automatic bleeding. For mechanical pumps, move the lever on the side of the fuel feeding pump up and down until the fuel filter level rises.
Where are the fluid and coolant capacities for the TNE series?
The fluid and coolant capacities chart is on page 10; use it to verify the engine cooling water and oil levels.
What should I do if the oil pressure alarm sounds?
Stop the engine immediately and review the operating instructions on page 18, then check the oil level before restarting.
How do I adjust the fan belt tension on a TNE engine?
Inspect and adjust the fan belt tension following the periodical checks schedule on page 22.
How do I troubleshoot intermittent starting?
Use the electrical-system troubleshooting guide: inspect the battery charge level and clean all connections.
