The closest physical checks are the 12V rating, 18 tooth count, clockwise rotation, 4 hole mount and the listed mounting measurements of 154mm, 100mm, 34mm and 103mm between centres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed starter is Mitsubishi style and suits Mitsubishi as a unit make, but no specific vehicle model or engine application should be assumed from that alone. If the replacement starter differs in mount hole diameter, nose cone length of 58mm, overall length of 235mm or pinion size of 52mm, it should not be treated as a direct match without verification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1.8kW power rating, 18 teeth and CW rotation are practical checkpoints, but they do not replace a full fitment check. Confirm the starter’s mounting pattern, pinion position at rest, and physical clearances in the vehicle before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarranty coverage is listed as 3yr Passenger and 1yr Commercial. As with any starter motor, the best buying decision comes from matching the exact part number, the OEM reference and the measured dimensions rather than relying on appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXS2068 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type STARTER MOTOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial, Mount Centres B 100mm, Mount Centres D 103mm, Nose Cone Length 58mm, Overall Length 235mm, Pinion Diameter 52mm, Rotation CW, Voltage 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Starter Mount Type 4 Hole, OEM Number M1T98081-PO, Product Group 2 STARTER MOTORS, Part No. MXS2068, Brand OEX, Description OEX Starter Motor 12V 18Th CW Mitsubishi Style, Mount Centres A 154mm, Mount Centres C 34mm, Mount Hole Diameter 6 \/ 9.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX Starter Motor 12V 18Th CW Mitsubishi Style.

These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number MXS2068, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully.
