Hey Rob,
I have not hooked it up to another Y385 as of yet.
My Dyno is a PTO Dyno so I will be looking at /reading PTO horse power only. It does have another shaft where you could run a engine directly off the crankshaft.
Once actual pto horse power is seen / known then a percentage factor can be used for actual engine horse power.
All the feed back that I have ever read, seen, heard is that Jinma rates there horse power at/off the pto shaft.
To me what is not known from / about Jinma is what pto rpm do / did they rate it at. The engine rpm rating is on the engine tag which is considered high idle, no load.
Other than me personally wanting to know the actual horse power of the Jinma's ......... I want to be able to break the engines in,and put then under a working load to help ensure my customers are receiving a tractor that has been serviced, prepped and tested. A lot of these tractors are sold to people that will only be used lightly like, pulling a drag/spike harrow, PTO 3 point spreaders, driveway maintenance box blade work, mowing somewhat short grass, move a round bale etc and will never really pull hard or get loaded. Some think they are pulling, loading the engine when they are actually lugging the engine. I feel it is going to be a great tool for day in day out tractor repair, diagnosing, testing.
I hope to have some time this coming Saturday afternoon to verify pto rpms and calculate the gear ratio between the engine and pto.
