Yanmar 3TG66/3TG72 Gasoline Engine Series Component Technical Manual
Yanmar gasoline engines within the 3TG66 and 3TG72 families utilize a high-density overhead valve configuration designed for sustained industrial performance. Bore dimensions remain critical for thermal stability, with the 3TG66 series maintaining a 66 mm diameter while the 3TG72 series scales to 72 mm to meet higher torque requirements.
Cylinder head integrity relies on a strict lubricated tightening sequence where cap screws are torqued to 34 N-m for the smaller variants and 61 N-m for the larger frameworks. This compression logic ensures a perfect seal for the head gasket, which is vital given the maximum allowable cylinder head flatness distortion is capped at 0.10 mm. Precise valve recession must not exceed 0.60 mm on the 72 mm units to prevent mechanical interference during high-speed operation.
Component Logic & Valve Architectures
Rocker arm assemblies across both series utilize a shared adjustment logic requiring a 0.2 mm clearance for both intake and exhaust valves measured at Top Dead Center. The rocker arm shaft supports are engineered with specific wear tolerances, mandating replacement if the internal diameter exceeds 10.1 mm on 3TG66 models or 12.1 mm on the 3TG72 models. Lubrication flow through the rocker assembly is maintained via integrated oil ports that must be clear of debris to prevent premature shaft scoring.

| 3TG Series Calibration Matrix | Logic Parameter A | Logic Parameter B | Logic Parameter C | Logic Parameter D |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Piston Ring Gap | 1.30 mm Max (Top) | 1.30 mm Max (2nd) | 1.80 mm Max (Oil) | 0.25 mm Groove |
| Connecting Rod | 23 N-m End Cap | 0.8 mm Side Play | 0.12 mm Clearance | 39.93 mm Journal |
| Main Crankshaft | 79 N-m Cap Torque | 0.50 mm End Play | 43.93 mm Journal | 0.12 mm Clearance |
| Thermostat Flow | 71°C Opening | 85°C Full Open | 9 N-m Cover | 13 mm Belt Play |
| Camshaft Drive | 0.5 mm End Play | 0.2 mm Backlash | 29.7 mm Lobe Min | 11 N-m Cap Screw |
Fresh technical insights reveal that the ignition pulser logic requires precise timing mark alignment on the flywheel to ensure spark synchronization within the three-cylinder firing order. The cooling framework operates via a wax-pellet thermostat that must achieve a full lift height at 85°C to prevent localized hotspots in the cylinder block. Oil pressure regulation is managed through a shim-adjustable valve framework where each 1 mm shim thickness corresponds to a specific pressure change, ensuring the internal architecture remains lubricated under varying load specifications.

FAQ
Verification of Yanmar 3TG66 and 3TG72 logic-framework schematic depth? 172 pages comprise this manual, which provides comprehensive repair instructions for engines removed from the machine, including detailed analysis for the 3TG66UJ, 3TG66UJ01, and 3TG72UJ models. Component depth is established through specific Group IDs such as Group 10 for Valve Train and Camshaft and Group 45 for the Cooling Architecture. Individualized repair logic is facilitated by module-based instructions and summary listings at the start of each group that detail wear tolerances, torque values, and essential tools required for industrial maintenance.
Engine and drivetrain repair coverage for Yanmar Gasoline Engines 3TG66 and 3TG72? 34 N-m (25 lb-ft) is the required lubricated torque for cylinder head cap screws on 3TG66 engines, while 3TG72 models mandate a higher specification of 61 N-m (45 lb-ft) to ensure structural integrity.
Relationship between CTM12 and other Yanmar service volumes? Parameters for successful repair require using this Component Technical Manual (CTM12) in conjunction with the specific machine technical manual, which provides the necessary logic for engine removal, installation, and gaining access to components. While CTM12 covers the engine internals as a stand-alone guide, technicians must order CTM-11 Engine Accessories for data regarding starting motors, alternators, and power take-offs. Integration within the total service support program also permits referencing Fundamentals of Service (FOS) manuals for basic theory and the troubleshooting framework of routine failures.
