Advantages of DCEC 6CTAA8.3-G9-B G-Drive Engine
All models have strong versatility, high degree of serialization, and easy maintenance.
Advanced design and manufacturing: excellent manufacturing technology, reliable and durable.
Bosh in-line fuel pump: it burns more fully under high injection pressure, has less energy loss, stronger power, and stronger fuel adaptability.
Good reliability The integrated design of cylinder block and cylinder head prevents water and oil leakage of the engine. There are 40% fewer parts than the same type of engine, and the failure rate is greatly reduced.
The overall cylinder design is adopted, the parts are about 25% less than similar products, the failure rate is less, and the maintenance is convenient.
The cylinder liner adopts plateau honing cross cover, corrosion-resistant high-nickel cast iron piston, which greatly reduces oil loss and improves durability and service life.
