Robert,
The grey market, also referred to as a parallel market, is a market where a product is bought and sold outside of the manufacturer’s authorized trading territory. So, to answer your question, NO, they are not grey market tractors.

Hi, I’m the original poster, and I apologize, I gave you guys the wrong information. I’m looking for pistons, sleeves, and rings for the following Tractor/Engine: Jinma Tractor Model: 354 Engine 395 The plate on the engine has some Chinese writing and some English. The English on the engine plate says: JD2100W Engine no. 08F0505261 Does anybody recognize this engine? Maybe this is a grey market tractor?? Thanks in advance for the help. Bob
Robert,
Early on in my career I learned that following instructions was very important, and in some cases could save a person’s life, including my own. I also learned that details were extremely important. That said, this is why I requested a CLEAR PICTURE of the engine nameplate. There could be information on there that may seem redundant or unimportant to you, but would be very important to someone trying to determine the type, size, model, and serial number of the engine. Serial numbers are very important too because of production changes that are made. And often times when writing something down from memory numbers or letters will get transposed. So, I’ll go out on a limb and ASS U ME that the engine is a Jiang Dong TY395. This is a popular engine (I have one in my dozer), and has several variants. You should have no problem finding parts for it, if in fact that’s what it is. Parts are available at Keno Tractor, Circle-G, Affordable Tractor, and a host of others.
Good luck

I got my info off of John’s tractor. It claimed the TY290 is the standard engine for a Jinma 200 series, but a very few had the TY295
Makes sense.
I wonder what happened to the original poster (OP)?

He might not even have a 354 tractor for that matter. I suppose it’s possible to have a TY295 engine that was used in the older 20 HP Guilin dozers, but I don’t know what wheeled tractor that would have been used in.

The answer to your dilemma is simple.
Take and post a clear picture of the engine nameplate here.
With the information you have given, I’m surprised Circle-G sent you anything.
And I don’t believe that the 354 tractors have a 295 engine..

And if you try to pick up 20′ of 2-1/2 foot diameter tree trunk with pallet forks on a 284 tractor (even just one end to back a trailer underneath it) you better have a bunch of weight in the back, don’t ask me how I know. Almost had to clean my shorts
Did you get that feeling like you were going to fly?

As I recall, the air filters on the old farm tractors I grew up driving all were located well above the hood, near the exhaust pipe.
Today all Ag and construction equipment has the engine air intake well away from dust and dirt, as well as exhaust. Almost all have pre-cleaners too.

I would advise installing an air filter restriction indicator because these are the only machines in the world that have the air filter positioned so that the cooling fan blows directly into it. Another issue that Yuchai is ignoring. If you are operating in very dusty conditions, check your filter daily. I would also advise against Fram air filters too – it’s been my experience that they channel easily. I simply relocated a Donaldson filter on mine to get it out of the engine compartment where it doesn’t belong.
It should also be noted that your oil filter will not fit all TY395 series engines. These engines are installed using either SAE or metric threaded filter heads. Adapters are available through Ranch Hand Supply to change the metric threads to SAE
