the engine you are talking about is actually a cat branded engine,which is built by mitsubishi. it is the same engine used in the larger track loaders,we are running 20+ of these at any one time,and i assure you these are good motors. cat has had a long standing relationship with mitsubishi,and uses many of these engines. cat is getting out of the on road business to focus their efforts in off road applications. the engines you are talking about are mitsubishi engines built to cat specs. i have been to school for cat,cummins,and deere over the last 18yrs.(as we are an independent dealer),and i can assure you, cat builds top notch engines and equip. hope this helps
dont want to upset you ,but mitsubishi also builds a similar engine for perkins. it is also used in the larger asv track loaders,it too is a good engine. i would call it a shared technology engine. it says mitsubishi on the block,and perkins on the valve cover. again a good engine.
we are very much on topic,take a pill,and the the op!
No need to be ill tempered Jeff. I was bang on topic in demonstrating the reliability and overall perfromance of a 140hp Caterpiller motor in a Bandit 1590, which, as the OP notes above, is the EXACT motor he is concerend about.
As for the videos..... They don't hinder my teams performance but they do enhance my ability to secure good work. Perhaps you should give it a try.
i have personally seen a 3054t w/5000hrs.,and still running like top
