the Isuzu engines are big trouble when they get over 6000 hours best avoided in my experience

there's two close to me one 130 with 7000 h and a new engine and a 160 the engine gave up at 7600h and got sent off for a rebuilt costing about 5k it didn't last more than 150 h befor it started drinking oil and got sold

I know a contractor in the Welshpool area that finished with JCB a longtime because of poor quality

I've ran 2 isuzu engined jcb and case machines over 14000hrs. Starter motor and exhausts is all we spent on

On the JS130 2008 was a change over year to common rail
Mechanical injection Isuzu are bomb proof only expect a water pump at around 8000 hrs,
Early common rail JS130’s can air lock in the cooling system, overheat and crack their heads some were modified.
Common rail JS130s are easily spotted they have vents in the pump & radiator doors, personally I would buy a case or hitachi

What year did they go to the jcb engine and what faults to look for on them

2012 was the first with JCB engines and a facelift- different windscreen and new decals, 2013 they then introduced a newer jcb engine (T4?) with the new dashboard/computer, some of these engines had problems which I'm told were dropping a valve but most would of been rectified by now.

2012 is a basic Jcb mechanical engine and probably the only one I would go for if I had another jcb, after that they suffer from the usual emissions troubles every engine manufacturer has, I have herd the vgt turbos can fail prematurely.

Yea emissions always seem to be the problem nowadays
