OEX Starter Motor 12V 8 Tooth CW Mitsubishi Style MXS361

OEX MXS361 is a 12V starter motor with clockwise rotation, 8 teeth, and a Mitsubishi style application. It is listed as a new unit with a 1.2kW power rating, 77mm flange diameter, 104mm mount centres, and a two-hole starter mount type.

This starter motor measures 168mm overall length, uses an M10 x 1.25 mount hole diameter, and has a 28mm pinion diameter with 9mm pinion at rest. Those dimensions are important when comparing against the removed unit, especially where the mounting pattern and pinion layout need to match exactly.

The unit is noted for automatic transmission use. For manual transmission applications, the listed alternative is MXS362. That distinction matters, as the wrong transmission type can affect starter engagement and fitment even when the general family looks similar.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number MXS361, the 12V rating, clockwise rotation, and the 8 tooth pinion against the original starter motor. The key dimensions here are 77mm flange diameter, 104mm mount centres, 168mm overall length, and M10 x 1.25 mount holes, so the removed unit should be checked against those points where possible.

The listing notes automatic transmission use, with MXS362 specified for manual transmission applications. That is a practical checkpoint rather than a suggestion, because starter motors can differ between automatic and manual versions even within the same vehicle range.

If you are matching by application, the supplied fitment groups include Mitsubishi, Ford Raider, Hyundai, Kia, and Mitsubishi Fuso entries, with year ranges shown for several of those groups. Use the vehicle details and the starter’s physical measurements together, since a name alone is not enough to confirm compatibility.

OEX identifies this as a new starter motor, and the warranty listed is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. If the vehicle is used commercially, it is worth confirming the application category before purchase so the warranty basis is understood from the outset.

The pinion at rest is listed as 9mm and the pinion diameter as 28mm. Those details matter when replacing a starter that has been removed, especially if there is wear on the old unit or if the vehicle has been previously fitted with a non-standard replacement.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXS361 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS361 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number MXS361, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by checking the part number MXS361, the automatic transmission note, and the listed dimensions against the existing starter motor before ordering. Where vehicle application is being used to guide selection, match it carefully to the supplied fitment details rather than relying on appearance alone.
