Yanmar TN-G Series – industrial engines of the register: 4TN88G and 4TN98G, four-cylinder units from Yanmar's TN engine family for construction machinery, generator sets and stationary plant
The Yanmar TN-G Series brings together on this collective page two engines from the TN family: 4TN88G and 4TN98G, which according to the register run on LPG. Yanmar was founded in 1912 in Osaka and is one of the most long-established Japanese engine makers; in the type designation of the TN engine family, the leading digit denotes the number of cylinders, so both engines listed here are four-cylinder units, larger than the three- and two-cylinder versions of the same engine family.

The register lists here two versions, 4TN88G and 4TN98G, with 44.2 to 63.0 kW or 60.1 to 85.7 hp at 2,500 to 2,600 rpm; displacement ranges from 2,190 to 3,318 cm³, dry weight from 175 to 240 kg. Both are water-cooled, naturally aspirated four-cylinder gas engines meeting the EPA Tier 2, CARB (Off-Road LSI) and EU Stage V emission standards.
Four-cylinder gas engines like the TN-G range are used in generator sets, forklifts and other equipment, where the CARB classification as a Large Spark-Ignition engine favours low-emission operation indoors or in enclosed halls; Yanmar's TN engine family, in its diesel-fuelled versions, otherwise covers a broad field of application from construction machinery to stationary industrial plant.
When buying used, what counts on these four-cylinder gas engines is compression and oil consumption, the tightness of the cooling system, and the condition of the ignition system and gas mixer; rough idling often points to uneven compression across the cylinders or an incorrectly set gas mixture. Spare parts run through Yanmar's industrial engine distribution.
