I have a 2005 Jinma 304 with a TY395E3 diesel. I was told the engine had ''blown up'' though there are no signs of any leaks anywhere. I never even tried to turn the engine over I just parked it close to 10 years ago. I have been corresponding with an engine supplier in China for a Mitsubishi 4M40 for a CAT 308 excavator and I suddenly thought to ask if he could get a used TY395. I can buy a new one but they do not have an #EPA rating for America so I do not believe I can import it even as a replacement. Does anybody have any experience importing complete engines?

tell him to take the head off, and ship it separately, "now its parts"

Any actual experience with this? The new engine is no longer called TY395

no partially a joke, but its also not a running engine.

When you parked your Jinma 10 years ago it was running fine ?

That is just the kind of outfit I am looking for, how may I find them?
I have no idea. I encountered this by accident and it reminded me of a VN-owned importer run by a guy and his sister.

Clicking on the Reddit link shown in this video, it goes to some discussion but no details beyond Ms Influencer inherited the family engine business and is doing what she can to promote it.

Added: I looked a little farther. This is Auto Parts Store Tina.

Google search on that, found her other songs on tiktok about engines.

This shows a phone number.

I have not ordered from any China tractor parts dealers since Farm Boys disappeared during COVID but Circle G still has a site and was Big on selling lots of Jinma parts.

They do list having complete engines in their ad for Jinma tractors.

I went a different route and bought a complete running Shanghai/ Rhino tractor for back up parts for my 554 yesterday and just unloaded it this afternoon.

Jinma Tractor Parts | Circle G Tractor Parts | Chinese Tractor Part

Hope Circle G is still up and running and can help you, if sourcing from China is not feasible.
