Author : Danny walker | Published On : 30 Jul 2026

A dependable starter motor keeps your Yanmar 4TNE102 or 4TNE106 industrial diesel engine running smoothly. If your engine cranks slowly, clicks, grinds, or won't start at all, a worn starter is likely the cause — and replacing it prevents costly downtime.

This starter fits Yanmar 4TNE102 and 4TNE106 4-cylinder diesel engines (1998-on), commonly used in industrial machinery, construction equipment, generators, agricultural machines, loaders, and utility equipment. It cross-references to Hitachi S13-160, Yanmar 123900-77010, and Gehl 138044 OEM numbers, so always verify these against your original part before ordering.

Key specs: 12V, 3kW output, OSGR type, clockwise rotation, 9-tooth pinion, 35.3mm pinion OD, two unthreaded 13mm mounting holes, and approximately 15.55 lbs weight — brand new with no core charge.

Before installing, disconnect the battery, clean terminals, and compare tooth count and rotation with your old unit. Maintain starter life by keeping the battery healthy, avoiding long cranks over 10-15 seconds, and fixing starting issues promptly.
