Getting started

Denso Sales California, a subsidiary of Denso Corp., has introduced its P5.0 Planetary Gear Reduction Starter, designed for use on heavy-duty vehicles and equipment powered with 8- to 16-liter diesel engines.

According to Denso, the new starter weighs only 38.6 lb., provides high torque for maximum starting power, features slow rotating engagement for improved durability of pinion and ring gear, and has a needle bearing in-drive housing for longer life operation.

In addition, the starter's rotating drive housing provides for increased application flexibility and that the high-torque design helps improve cold-engine starting ability.
