## Overview

A distributor serving thousands of light trucks and pickups wanted a dependable source of complete replacement engines in the 4JB1 family, the most common engine in their market.

## Challenge

Workshops needed both turbocharged and naturally aspirated versions, with and without accessories, and the distributor needed clear labelling and mixed-container loading so engines could be sold from a single warehouse.

## Solution

| Item | Model | Qty |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Light truck diesel engine | Isuzu 4JB1T, 68 kW @ 3600 rpm, turbocharged | 30 |
| Light truck diesel engine | Isuzu 4JB1, naturally aspirated | 20 |
| Light truck diesel engine | JMC JE493 (4JB1T-based), 68 kW | 10 |
| Long blocks | 4JB1 long-block assemblies for rebuild work | 15 |

## Scope of supply

Specification sheet per variant, individual engine numbering and labelling, mixed loading of two 40 ft containers, FOB Shanghai, and a spare-parts price list for follow-on orders.

## Outcome

The distributor sold through the first shipment ahead of forecast and placed a repeat order with a higher share of turbocharged units.
