Where can I find the serial number of my Yanmar engine?

Are you looking for a new Yanmar engine for your machine or boat? Then it is essential to first find the serial number of your Yanmar engine. Normally you can find this on the engine type plate which you can find on the valve cover.
However, it may happen that the type plate is no longer on the valve cover, it may have fallen off over time or may have been removed during an overhaul.

Without your engine serial number we cannot provide you with a quote and therefore cannot guarantee the suitability of the new engine.

Where to Search

1. Engine block: The serial number is usually stamped on a metal plate attached to the valve cover.
2. Owner's manual: Check your motorcycle's manual; This often states where the serial number can be found.
3. Other Locations: The serial number may also be stamped directly on the engine block, near the cylinders or on the valve cover.

Tips for Finding the Serial Number

• Cleaning: Clean the engine before searching so that any stampings are clearly visible.
• EPA stickers: Do not confuse the serial number with other stickers, such as the EPA tag, which is usually located next to the engine plate.
• Photos: Take a photo of the serial number once you find it for easy reference in the future.

Importance of the Serial Number

The serial number is crucial for:

• Ordering a new Yanmar engine
• Parts Orders: Make sure you get the correct parts for your specific model.
• Warranty claims: Process warranty claims faster and more effectively.
