They are good, have one in my new holland cm274 thats approaching 10k hours. Still runs great. Honestly I've had great luck with all my low hp diesels. Its when you crank up the power they don't last.

Yanmar actually made all of JD compact tractors for years. And still builds them engines to this day. I had tier 4 final (engine) training down at the adairsville, Ga facility. We got to tour the assembly shop. Inwas surprised how much equipment yanmar powers, or made for other companies. I'll start up a thread and up date for you guys.

Ya its crazy how much equipment is made by a select few companies. The majority produce absolutely nothing, they just rebrand and sell. Mahindra is well known for this. Ticks me off cuz they act all America proud, but everything is built in India.?Mahindra? Its why I love Kubota so much. They do it all in house.
