Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the part number PCA1379 and confirm the engine application, because the listed suitability is for Cummins ISL / ISC engines without rear PTO. The wrong rear PTO configuration can mean the starter is not the correct replacement, even if other dimensions look close.

The electrical and physical details are important here: 12V, 5.5kW, clockwise rotation, 12 teeth, and a three-hole mount. If the existing starter differs in rotation, tooth count, mount pattern, or length, it should be checked carefully before fitment is assumed.

The starter weighs 14.5kg and has an overall length of 347mm, with a 46mm pinion diameter and 47.5mm pinion at rest. Those measurements are practical checkpoints when comparing against the removed unit, especially where multiple variants may have been used across a range of engine or chassis applications.

This unit is listed as a Mitsubishi starter motor and is marked as an Original Equipment part. The safest approach is to confirm the engine model, rear PTO status, mounting arrangement, and part number together rather than relying on vehicle branding alone.

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 PCA1379 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.

Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 12Th CW. Part number PCA1379 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 PCA1379, 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.

Available application references include KENWORTH T-SERIES, KENWORTH T-SERIES 2019. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by checking part number PCA1379, the Cummins ISL / ISC engine application, and whether the engine is without rear PTO. If the engine has rear PTO, the listed alternate part is PCA2679.
