We sell every version of the Yanmar 3TNV88 - mechanical injection and electronic common rail, new surplus and rebuilt - and we build each one to the machine it is going into. This page explains the difference between the variants so you order the right engine the first time. If you already know what you need, send us your data plate and we will quote you. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE THAT REALLY MATTERS: HOW THE ENGINE METERS FUEL. Buyers usually start by looking for the engine that matches their machine model. That is the wrong starting point. The Yanmar 3TNV88 is a family, and the thing that separates one from another is the fuel system. MECHANICAL INJECTION. A mechanical injection pump with a mechanical governor. No ECU, no sensors, no wiring harness to match up. This is what the majority of machines in the field are running and it is our standard stock. ELECTRONIC COMMON RAIL (HPCR). ECU-controlled, high-pressure common rail. Fitted to machines built to the later emissions standards. We supply these too. These two are NOT interchangeable. A mechanical engine will not run a common-rail machine, and a common-rail engine will not run a mechanical machine. This one mismatch causes more failed installs than everything else in this engine family combined. Everything else on the engine can be worked around. This cannot. WHAT THE SUFFIX ON YOUR DATA PLATE ACTUALLY MEANS. Yanmar 3TNV88 engines carry a suffix after the model number - codes like -BKMS, -BPTB2, -QTB, -BDSA. Buyers
The Gehl SL3635 drives its hydrostatic pumps straight off the 88 mm Yanmar three-cylinder. We stock that engine in mechanical and in common rail, new surplus and rebuilt, and set the core up to your machine. The Gehl SL3635 is a radial-lift skid steer loader built in West Bend, Wisconsin, rated at roughly 1,050 lb operating capacity and about 4,400 lb operating weight. Gehl's own factory engine parts manuals (917105C and 917329) document the Yanmar 88 mm-bore 3-cylinder in this frame, with the earlier 3TNE88 in first-generation builds and the 3TNV88 thereafter. The SL3635 is one of the highest-volume Yanmar 88 mm applications in the United States and remains common in landscaping, rental and light construction fleets. Note that Gehl later offered an HPCR (common rail) version of this platform, so the fuel system must be confirmed from the data plate. ENGINE SPECIFICATION. Three cylinder, four cycle, liquid cooled, vertical in-line. Direct injection, naturally aspirated. Bore and stroke 88 x 90 mm. Displacement 1.642 L (100.2 cu in). Around 36 hp at 3000 rpm at full speed, less in machines governed lower. Dry weight approximately 341 lb (154 kg). Rotation counterclockwise viewed from the flywheel end. Engine as fitted to this machine: 3TNV88-BKMS / 3TNE88. Production years: approx. 2000-2006. Rated output in this machine: approximately 36 hp @ 3000 rpm. WHAT WE FIT TO YOUR MACHINE. On a skid steer the engine sits transversely behind the operator, driving the hydrosta
Before you buy an engine for a Gehl SL4240, check the cylinder count - this is a platform where three-cylinder and four-cylinder Yanmars both turn up. We carry the 3TNV88 in mechanical and common rail, new surplus and rebuilt, and we confirm which engine your machine actually takes before anything ships. The Gehl SL4240 is a mid-frame skid steer loader. CYLINDER COUNT WARNING: this platform was supplied with EITHER the 3-cylinder Yanmar 88 mm engine OR the 4-cylinder 4TNV88 (2.190 L, approx. 46 hp) depending on build and market. Gehl's factory engine parts manual 917329 covers both the 3TNV88-BKMS and 4TNV88-BDMS for the 3640 / 3840 / 4240 platform. Confirm the cylinder count on your data plate before ordering - the 3-cylinder and 4-cylinder engines are not interchangeable. ENGINE SPECIFICATION. Three cylinder, four cycle, liquid cooled, vertical in-line. Direct injection, naturally aspirated. Bore and stroke 88 x 90 mm. Displacement 1.642 L (100.2 cu in). Around 36 hp at 3000 rpm at full speed, less in machines governed lower. Dry weight approximately 341 lb (154 kg). Rotation counterclockwise viewed from the flywheel end.

The Gehl 540 runs the 88 mm Yanmar three-cylinder at sustained working rpm. We stock that engine in both mechanical and common rail, new surplus and rebuilt, configured for the machine. The Gehl 540 is a compact articulated wheel loader used in landscaping, agriculture, municipal work and light material handling. It is powered by the Yanmar 88 mm-bore 3-cylinder. Articulated loaders load the engine continuously at working rpm, so a correctly specified variable-speed mobile engine - not a fixed-speed gen-drive unit - is essential in this application. ENGINE SPECIFICATION. Three cylinder, four cycle, liquid cooled, vertical in-line. Direct injection, naturally aspirated. Bore and stroke 88 x 90 mm. Displacement 1.642 L (100.2 cu in). Around 36 hp at 3000 rpm at full speed, less in machines governed lower. Dry weight approximately 341 lb (154 kg). Rotation counterclockwise viewed from the flywheel end. Engine as fitted to this machine: 3TNV88 / 3TNE88. Production years: 2000-2012. Rated output in this machine: approximately 36 hp. WHAT WE FIT TO YOUR MACHINE. On an articulated loader the engine works at sustained rpm under continuous load. The bellhousing, drive coupling, oil pan and cooling package have to suit the machine - all external, all transferable from the engine you are replacing. MECHANICAL OR COMMON RAIL - THIS IS THE ONE THING YOU MUST MATCH. The Yanmar 3TNV88 comes in two fuel systems and they are not interchangeable. MECHANICAL INJECTION uses a mecha
When a Gehl 1640E needs an engine, the part that trips buyers up is not finding a 3TNV88 - it is knowing whether the machine takes the mechanical version or the common rail one. We carry both, new surplus and rebuilt, and we will tell you which yours runs before you order. The Gehl 1640E is a compact skid loader rated around 24 hp with an operating weight near 2,980 lb, sized for confined-space landscaping and construction work. Because this is a small-frame machine, verify the bore on your data plate: some builds carry the smaller 82 mm Yanmar (3TNV82A) rather than the 88 mm. The bore determines which core you need. ENGINE SPECIFICATION. Three cylinder, four cycle, liquid cooled, vertical in-line. Direct injection, naturally aspirated. Bore and stroke 88 x 90 mm. Displacement 1.642 L (100.2 cu in). Around 36 hp at 3000 rpm at full speed, less in machines governed lower. Dry weight approximately 341 lb (154 kg). Rotation counterclockwise viewed from the flywheel end. Engine as fitted to this machine: 3TNV88 / 3TNV82A. Production years: 2010-2020. Rated output in this machine: approximately approx. 24-36 hp. WHAT WE FIT TO YOUR MACHINE.
