Foton Engines

[zonta223]

From reading this and other forums it seems that the 25 and 30hp 3 cylinder diesel engine in the Foton Tractors is the same as the one used in the Jenma tractor....The 50hp+ 4 cylinder Foton engines are a "perkins" copy...... can anyone tell me what the 45 hp 4 cylinder engines are?? any feedback on reliabilty??

I've never seen a 45hp Foton in the USA. In my travels, I've only seen 25hp, 40hp, 70hp and 82hp models. I know there are a few other models imported, just haven't actually set eyes on them. But no 45hp models at all that I know of. And I'm pretty sure the 40hp is a three cylinder. So I don't expect you'll get any (accurate) info on the 45hp model from American tractor forums.

FOTON 25hp is Chinese KM285 engine, 40HP have 4 options, Chinese SL3105 3-cylinder and C490 4-cylinder only got EPA2 sold before 2007, Chinese A498 EPA4 engine is current model on 404, the last one is Perkins 404D from England.

They don't have 45HP model in US market now, only 40HP or 50HP.
