FAQ

1. Will this camshaft fit my specific Mitsubishi 6D15 engine variant?

This camshaft is designed for the standard 6D15 engine block. However, there are minor variations in some industrial or generator set versions. We recommend comparing the part number on your old camshaft (ME071613 or ME170477) or measuring the journal diameters and lobe lift to ensure compatibility. Contact our technical team with your engine serial number for verification.

2. What is the recommended installation procedure for this camshaft?

Installation should be performed by a qualified diesel mechanic. Key steps include: thoroughly cleaning the engine block, lubricating the camshaft journals and lobes with assembly lube during installation, torquing bearing caps to factory specifications (typically 80-90 Nm for the 6D15), and checking valve clearance after installation. Always use new camshaft bearings and thrust washers.

3. How can I maximize the lifespan of this camshaft?

Use high-quality diesel engine oil (API CI-4 or CJ-4) with the correct viscosity (typically 15W-40 for most climates). Ensure the oil filter is changed regularly and the oil pump is functioning correctly to maintain proper lubrication. Avoid excessive engine idling and follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance intervals for valve adjustments and timing checks.
