John Deere Engine 22- 4045AFM85 Marine Propulsion Engine

This 4.5L PowerTech™ engine regulates supreme propulsive power at 119-168 kW (160-225 hp) rating. It is ideal for line haul tugs and towboats, fish and shrimp trawlers/draggers, and displacement hull fishing boats. etc.

Key Features

High torque and low rated RPM

High torque provides excellent vessel control and maneuverability. Lower rated propulsion RPM reduces vibration and noise for improved crew comfort.

4-valve cylinder head

Excellent airflow through 4-valve cylinder head delivers greater low-speed torque and better transient response time.

High-pressure common-rail (HPCR)

The HPCR fuel system provides variable common-rail pressure, multiple injections, and higher injection pressures. It also controls fuel injection timing and provides precise control for the start, duration, and end of injection. Electronic transfer pump is self-priming for ease of maintenance. Provides high performance, excellent fuel economy, and low emissions.

Water-cooled exhaust manifold

Integrated components eliminate external hoses and fittings. Wet exhaust manifold creates a cooler and quieter environment for passengers and crew.

Replaceable cylinder liners

Replaceable wet-type cylinder liners are precision-machined and hardened for long life. Allows engine to be rebuilt to original specifications.

Electronic engine control unit (ECU)

Advanced fault code diagnostics and customizable engine protections ensure reliability and uptime. Provides highly customizable features and trim to integrate your vessel.

Integrated heat exchanger

Integrated expansion tank, heat exchanger, and exhaust manifold. High-capacity heat exchanger provides reliable operation in adverse conditions.

Keel-cooled or heat exchanger

Closed cooling system in keel-cooled engine option eliminates the need for a sea strainer, seawater pump, or anodes. Heat exchanger option offers a lighter, more compact, and simpler engine installation.

Internal balancers

Internal balancers reduce engine noise and vibration for crew comfort. NOTE: John Deere 4045 engines only.

Multiple service options

Either-side oil fill/dipstick combinations and remote oil and fuel filter options are available for easier service access.
