Johnson Pump has been a supplier of pumps and spare parts to Yanmar since 1993, but this marks the first time the company is using Johnson Pump in Yanmar's larger engine range.
The Johnson Pump F95 self-priming rubber impeller pump will serve as a crucial component of the new engine's heat exchanger, cooling the engine itself and its associated exhaust system.
