Tractor has broken Iseki motor e3112. Having problem locating parts. Anyone do a motor swap to another 3cyl diesel??

Nope... mine's still going strong with 1100+ hrs on it.

Sorry to hear that.

Unfortunately, you are the first to come forward with this kind of problem. So, we haven't had any experience here with that.

These engines are usually very reliable.

Please let us know what you find, and how you make out.

Going to tear down the motor Friday something cracked the oil pan. And it sounds like something big broke. It started for a second and I immediately shut it down due to the noise. No noise on slow crank but once she fired my lord. I have been told only parts are slow boat from china or boneyard.

Yea very odd these little ISEKI 1.1L engines like most in SCUT are pretty bullet proof, let us know what you find.

If you go to an auto parts store most parts are from China these days. China seems to be very adept at reverse engineering parts or making them in conjunction with companies from other countries. Wasn’t like this when I was in charge.
