Hi there, Has anybody heard of "Lomatec" as a marine diesel manufacturer? They seem to sell marinized Nissan blocks. However, it seems impossible to locate the company. Thanks, Frank |

I purchesed a lomatec 65 hp L4d26 from MDT a co. in Au. Almost immediately the impeller pump leaked. MDT sent me a new Johnson pump at no cost and said that they were going to replace the pumps on all the lomotecs when they arrive at their factory. At engine hour 13 the rear seal gave out. MDT is sending me a new hopefully better one at no cost. MDT is a good up front co. and easy to work with. But I am understandably shakey about the engine. |

I purchased a 29 hp 3 cyl.model from MDT power also, I agree with Walter about the proactive response from the company. I had a water pump seal leak as well. I am pleased with the performance of the motor(I installed myself)and have had no further problems(58 hrs.) I too am a little curious re. the actual base motor and marinization, but the price was right and service from MDT is very good. |

We are seriously thinking about repowering our yacht with an 85hp Lomatec Marine engine and was wondering how Walter Teper and B Smith 1 would rate the engine now that they have had longer to assess it. Please anyone else with information regarding Lomatec Marine diesel engines we would appreciate your advice. Thank you |

Hi Bruce, I think that you wil like the motor very much. Mine is running quite well now. You will have no worry if you buy it from MDT. They are a good company. I found the manuels translation into english a little rough. But then again I'm from N>Y>C> so what would I know about english. |

Bruce, Being a sailor I use the motor less than I would in a power boat, that said I recently had a 20 hr. upwind motor into steep chop, the motor ran without a hitch, cooling well and oil pressure perfect. I like it. |

Hi there, As the initiator of this posting, I eventually bought a Lomatec L4D18MA (Nissan block / 35HP) from a reseller in China, so called Mr. Wang Jianyou. Unfortunately, the service from him or his company appear to be very bad. The engine was deliverd with the air filter placed on the top of the engine, while on the pictures sent to me before the purchase, showed the air filter placed on the side. I had to change this, since the engine cover would have to be 30 cm higher then expected. I had to find a solution for this roblem myself. I have asked the guy in China (manufacturer) to send me the appropriate exhaust pipe, in order to modify this, but did not receive any help or cooperation at all from him or his company. The waterpump inmediatelly, started to leak while starting the engine for the first time. I agree that the water pump is bad. I exchanged some e-mails with James White from (Marine Diesel Traders) in Australia. Allthough they did not sell the engine to me, James was were very helpfull in provinding the details for the replacement of the waterpump, which seems to be a copy of a Johnson waterpump. I am using the engine on a lifeboat, which was transformed into a launch. The engine sounds ok, however it is not very compact like other engines of the same power, like Volvo Penta, Vetus or Yanmar. If size is not really a matter, then it maybe a good engine, given the price. I will post more, as soon as I have obtained more experience with this engine. I am attaching a photo to this message (which a also sent to the reseller in China), which shows my concerns about the engine. Frank / The Netherlands

Sir (Frank Smith), can You indicate real China manufacturer of these Lomatec Engines? we need to contact them direct as we have a lot of problems to deal with Mr. Wang Jianyou; no adeguate info, no specs, no drawings for intallation, no one email answering straigth to our questions. We want to use and sale these engines in Thailand for local market on fishing, working and pleasure boats but he seems really not to be interested in this huge market where it is really expensive to use imported EU and Japanese engines. Please let me know. |

Dear Luigi, I don't think Mr. Wang Jianyou has anything to do with the manufacturer directly. As far as I believe, he is a middleman, a reseller. There many other people in China selling the Lomatec engines. I don't have any contact details of the manufacturer. It is a very unprofessional, Mr. Wang Jianyou is in my opnion not reliable to do business with. Promisses, but no results. |

Hi Brian. Could you post email address of Mr. Wang Jianyou? Do they have a web site? Has anybody ran this engine more then 100 hours? It is also interesting guaranteed life in hours given by manufacturer until complete overhaul. Also I would like to hear any comments about gearboxes. Reliable? Thanks |

Hi Valentin. Mr. Wang's e-mail address is: jywtl@pub.tz.jsinfo.net I have always managed to get him on this address and he usually answers. He, apparently, is the Sales manager for Lomatec and is out of the office quite often. If he does not answer your mail within 5-6 days, send him another he will eventually answer. |

NOTE: Gear box it is a COPY of italian Twin-Disc Techonodrive TMC260, engine it is the Nissan assembled with unauthorized spare parts for this engine (not from Nissan) assembled on a copy of the cast block (it is a copy of the Nissan). But everything looks to work well. But isn't an original Nissan and/or TM. NOTE: Spare parts from TM cannot be used on this gearbox. |

Gday all I recently purchased a yacht with a newly installed 115 hp turbo LOMATEC engine . The engine was purchased from and installed by BOSS Machinery ,MALAGA WA .The engine has now done 370 hrs without missing a beat !! The water pump fitted was said to accept the Johnson impeller but the one i fitted leaked because the impeller does not seal flat against either the pump housing or cover plate . There is a "notch" in the sealing surfaces on the impeller . As the pump is likely to be common to a number of similar sized motors i was hopping that someone has found a solution . I am also having trouble finding oil filters to suit this motor . Any answers greatly appreciated !! CHEERS CHRIS |

I understand, Wang You Yin isn't export manager of Loling Mahcinery, he is a reseller for many chinese engines brands, nothing to do direct with Loling company. You order an engine he goes to buy from them. Cannot provides guaranty as well. We were talking about Wang Jian You, Loling sales representative. |

Hi everyone, Just an update on my Lomatec adventure. we had to replace the water pump immediately at arrival, 0 hours running. It started to leak immediately. We have now installed an original Johnson water pump (350 Euros), which is working fine. The instrument pannel showing the engine rotation no longer works, also some LEDS on the instrument panel light up for no reason. Also the fitting of the heat exchanger is leaking; need to find a new one. The engine has now runned for 6 hours. Tried to buy an instrument panel from the Dutch Lomatec representative, no response. Eventually they asked 275,- Euro's (presumabley still have to pay the VAT on the top of that). Apparently no response, because we bought the engine directly from Mr. Mr. Wang Jianyou. I will post some photo's soon showing the state of the engine. Regards, Frank Smith The Netherlands |

Hi Guys, I have finally fitted the L4D18MA Lomatec engine. It skipped in quite nicely. Got it all hooked up and.... HEY PRESTO! it started first time and all seemed well, i.e. no leaks or funny noises. I had to place the oil filter, the fuel filter and the water tank in remote locations due to space restrictions. The engine was running for about five minutes when we noticed that there was no oil pressure even though the oil pressure warning light did not come on. Try as we might we could not find anything wrong.... even changed the oil pressure gauge to a mechanical one, still no change. Finally we removed the sump and found that the washers on the relief valve were not the correct ones, changed those but still no pressure. I called Mr. Wang and he asked me to send him some photos, which I have done, and I am now waiting for his reply. |

Strange that you bought again a Lomatec engine. Your post from october 2006 tells only bad thing about these engines. We as Dutch representive never had any questions about a instrumentpanel from your side and the prices for this panel is 250,- euro including v.a.t and we have this panels in stock. |

I think you are gravely mistaken..... I never posted in 2006. My only post was in 2008 when I informed all members of Mr. Wang's e-mail address and then I had only good things to say about him. I suggest that you re-read my post. Also I have no complaints about the instrument panel and I certainly do not require a new one. The problem I have is lack of oil pressure. |

Hi Guys, Many of you complain that water pump leaks after installation imediately. I just installed my L4D32MA engine but did not run yet because it is too cold here and water freezes. I would like to be ready to get the same problem. Could you explain this more clearly? What does on this pump leak? Cover sealing or shaft sealings? Does L4D32 has same pump? |

________________________________________ This is a reply to peter van klootwijk msg.: ________________________________________ Why are you trying to delude the readers of this forum, by setting up smoke screens with your nonsense? It looks more that you're afraid to hear the discontent reactions of Lomatec buyers on this forum. No, I am not a competitor, neither a reseller of any engine and it has definitely never been my intention to give Lomatec a bad name. I just want to share my experiences with other people, just to save them the disappointed experiences I have had. It is up the readers of this forum to freely decide whether to distillate any valuable information from these postings or not. Just to remind you, I am a disappointed buyer of a Lomatec engine for which the manufacture never gave me any support or part replacement while the engine was sold with a guarantee! What about that? I must admit, at the time I bought this engine, there was no party in this country claiming any title as “dealer” or “representative”. The engine was sold directly to my friend (fellow engine owner) and I , eventually the engine was sent to us 3 months after the advanced payment. We have had many phone calls and e-mail exchanges with Mr. Wang Jianyou, asking him for an exhaust pipe adaptation replacement and other parts. He promised to send us these parts – eventually we did not receive any parts at all from him. If you’re truly the representative or dealer or whatever you claim to be in relation to Lomatec, why don’t you start to recover the damaged relationship between us a Lomatec has suffered. If you really consider yourself, a true Lomatec representative (apparently more people in Holland claim to be Lomatec dealer) then this is your chance to prove it, by giving a decent service for which we paid when we purchased the engine from your business partner, the Lomatec manufacturer or compensate us for the trouble have had with this engine. Once more, it is definitely not our intention to give Lomatec a bad name. I wish I could tell good and happy experiences; unfortunately it is not the case, I am faced with a number of issues which are unsatisfactorily as a buyer. I just like to mention that MDT powers in Australia is a successful reseller of Lomatec engines for a long time. MDT gives their customers an excellent service, even giving advice to people like me which did not purchase the engine from them. MDT helped me to find out which Johnson pump I needed as a replacement – very helpful, excellent service.

Valentin, In our case with a L4D18MA block, there were two problems: 1.) The pump was leaking 2.) The quantity of water pumped through the engine was insufficient. The pump supplied with our engine by Lomatec is an imitation of a Johnson pump with a plastic cover and far from the quality what you get when you buy an original Johnson pump. After installing the brand new original Johnson pump the water temperature lowered to a normal level. |

To Frank Smith, First of all we don,t talk nonsens. You have a lot of complains about Lomatec,posted in 2006, strange that you bought an other one in 2009.If we had such complains,we never bought again such an engine. Second, you never contact us ,so how can you say that we don,t deliver an instrument panel. Even now you leave a message on the forum why don,t you contact us direct? You ask for service in your last post ,so contact us!!! Third we give service to Lomatec users,never mind that they bought there engine elswere. To all other forum users from Europe if you need advice or spare parts please let us know. |

Reply to Peter Klootwijk: I don't understand your comment regarding "2006"? I have placed a thread on this forum, yes in October 2006. I was trying to gather more information from other Lomatec owners, before we issued the order. The posting of October 2006, is not a complaint, but a way to obtain information an inquiry! If you read the posting sequence in this forum carefully; you will discover that our complaints and disappointments were posted firstly on September 17, 2008. For your information, herewith some dates which clarify the sequences of our order. Order placed on: January 30, 2008 Advanced payment done on: February 14, 2008 Engine arrival in Rotterdam: May 16, 2008 Mr. Wang Jianyou never told us anything about any Lomatec dealer or representative in Holland. He even offered us a dealership for Lomatec in Holland. So we assume that up to May 2008, there was no Lomatec dealer in Holland. I am currently for a couple of months working outside of Holland, I will therefore ask my friend in Amsterdam, to contact you by mail or phone. Perhaps that you both can solve this issue together in a friendly manner. |

Hello Frank, Please let your friend contact us. We are Pemarboat and the official importer in Holland. We have nothing to do with the company under the name Lomatec. This company sells Danyong,when people ask for a Lomatec engine,he tells them that Lomatec is a bad engine and that he do,nt sell anylonger Lomatec they better buy a Danyong. The problem at this moment he registert the name Lomatec in Holland. Mr.Wang Jianyou and his company started a proces against this company,because Lomatec is a trade- mark of Loling machinery company. Frank do not hestitate to contact us. regards,Peter |

TO Johan: The short answer is yes you can run it on bio-diesel. But why would you want to. Whatever you may save on fuel cost you will spend on cleaning and replacing filters not to mention the smell. |

Hi Ahmed. Probably I can give you some recommendation. 1. Make sure electromagnet on the fuel pump pulls while you push stop button. If it does, problem will be in the fuel pump. If does not, check wires from stop button to electromagnet. 2. Lomatec uses gauges from Wema. As I know the Wema's RPM sensor has LED which must be lit while engine is running. If it does not, check that you have 12v supplied from ignition key to the engine and RPM meter. 3. Your propeller probably does not fit the engine, so load is too hight on idle RPM. Try to make idle RPM less then 600. 4. You can make an adaptor and install oil filter on any place of your boat. I saw in this conference somebody already did it. Good luck |

Hi Johan, I assume you also have Wema RPM gauge with hour meter. First of all you need to check +12 voltage on connector. See below. CABLE CONNECTION a) RED CABLE +12V power (if +24V power, then connect the 82Ω5W resistor between the cable and the battery) b) BLUE CABLE Negative power (–) c) BLACK CABLE To terminal “W” on dynamo or sensor on flyweel. d) RED/WHITE CABLE Red Light, +12V power (if +24V power, then connect a 280Ω2W resistor between the cable and the battery) e) YELLOW/WH CABLE Not used by Lomatec. (This is yellow backlite) Do you have sensor installed on flyweel? If so, there is LED on the sensor. Does it light while engine is running? |

People! What type of oil must be used for Lomatec gearbox? I'm confused because read in one doc that it should be ATF. But Lomatec makes only mechanical gear boxes. So ATF is not so good oil for this. Please your recomendations. |

I am having the same problem with Lomatec who have promised me a replacement engine since last April and I have still not received anything. They are supposed to operate to ISO9001 standards and I have half a mind to place a report about their operation. |

Hi have questioned me a bit, it looks like most girbox which is to Lomatec have much problem.Have talked with several of my own country, among other things, and most have problems with this girbox.When there will some girbox, as they have in China big problem no.I am know of someone who has tried 4 girbox in the boat and all have the same problem.Perhapsi not these girbox is estimated at high speed / pmr.When it has hosted well in houseboats with a lower rpm? Mabe's time again factory / supplier comes with an explanation instead of a lot of bad rumors. |
