Is the Isuzu ThermoKing C201 a power unit?
It is an engine manufactured by Isuzu specifically for Thermoking, I dont believe it was made for anyone else. It even has the thermoking name cast into the block. and oil pan. The problem is that I purchased this engine with the intentions of using it for a generator and/or pressure washer. This means it will need a power take off installed on it.
What kind of engine does Thermo King use?
Torque, that engine was specifically specced for Thermo-King by Isuzu. Prior to them buying engines from Isuzu they used diesels made by Mercedes-Benz.
What kind of engine is in an Isuzu LUV?
The Isuzu diesels found in P’ups and Luv’s are C223 engines and many parts are interchangeable with the C201 TK engine. I think the flywheels have the same bolt circle. This would give you the flat surface and threaded holes for the clutch.
How does a PTO work on an Isuzu power unit?
The clutch disc has a bunch of teeth on it that mesh with the ring gear on the flywheel to drive the PTO, its basically a big gear made out of fiber. When you hit the clutch on the PTO it squeezes the clutch disc and makes a solid connection.
