4HF1 vs. 4BE1

[ferolimic]

gandang araw mga bossing. need some help on deciding which engine is better for hauling LPG cylinders. mga 3 to 4 tons ang total capacity . 4HF1 ba o 4BE1? ito kasi ang sinabi ng ibang napagtanungan ko. I am not much of a technical guy pagdating dito so ask sana ko help from the group. TIA

The 4HF series of engines are the newer ones. I don't know if parts for this engine is abundant in the local market already. And even if they're already available, they might be more expensive than parts for the 4BE1.

We have trucks with both engines. Better to choose 4HF1, sobrang luma na mga 4BE1. mahirap makahanap ng sariwa pa. the youngest are at least 15 yrs old already and mahirap pumasa sa smoke emission tests. ang lamang lang ng 4BE1 ay mas marami at mas mura ng konti ang parts. mas matipid ng konti sa diesel ang 4HF1.

sir, if i were to choose, id pick the 4hf1, the displacement of 4hf1 is 4.3L..overhead cam ..kaya mas powerful..i have a 4hf1 and i suggest yuo get the inline injection or direct injection..not the rotary type injection..medyo mhina ang rotary...fbe1 medyo lower ang displacement lower din ang price lower din power hehehe... sa parts both madami na supply ngyon

[bilog]

Hmmm... dati meron din kaming 4be1. but after 3 years of service i was forced to sell it because its cranshaft broke. I wanted to buy sana a surplus part for it but my mechanic told me not to go with my plan. Apparently yun daw ang sirain sa 4be1. i do not know if this is really true but i trust him. By the way i bought my truck as japan surplus. In terms of power naman kayang kaya nya ang 3-4 tons na lpg. I am also into LPG dealership kaya i know this first hand. I do not have much to say about the 4hf1 dahil di ako kumuha ng ganitong makina. 4be1 is relatively new in the philippines so the price for its parts is also relatively priced higher. Yun ang sabi ng kaibigan kong nasgbebentga ng truck. If you are on a budget get the 4be1. tyempuhan lang naman ang pagbili ng surplus trucks. whatever you choose i wish you luck.

daming salamat mga bossing we'll see kung kakayanin ng budget yung 4HF1. san ba most recommended place to buy trucks? sa subic ba talaga puntahan? i hear that there are some issues in the registration. binabyahe pa raw ung truck para i-rehistro kada taon. di ba applicable ang change venue for subic sold vehicles? TIA

[alwayz_yummy]

kung renew lang, 1 time change venue lang... 4hf1 vote ko, matakaw lang sa diesel, pero sulit naman.. sa bulacan/cabanatuan area, most of them are subic direct importer branches...

Sir ferolimic if i were you i would go with the 4HF1. Its a very powerful engine here in batangas many jeeps have 4HF1 and the run very well.Even though it has a bigger displacement it doesnt mean that its a diesel guzzler.Some drivers say the 4BE1 guzzles more diesel than a 4HF1.And plus its a newer engine.The 4HF1 has a single overhead camshaft.
