Solé Diesel engines are mostly marinized Mitsubishi blocks — buy the industrial part
Solé Diesel's MINI and SM ranges are marinized Mitsubishi industrial engines (with a few Kubota, Mazda and Nissan exceptions). Use the map to source internal parts as cheaper Mitsubishi spares.
Solé = Mitsubishi (mostly)
Spain's Solé Diesel marinizes Mitsubishi industrial engines across most of its range — the MINI series and the larger SM series are Mitsubishi L- and S-series blocks. Internal service parts therefore cross to Mitsubishi part numbers, sold through industrial and generator channels. But Solé is not a pure-Mitsubishi shop: three families are exceptions, and getting the donor right matters before you order.
Solé → base-engine map
| Solé model | Base engine | Cyl |
|---|---|---|
| MINI-17 | Mitsubishi L2E | 2 |
| MINI-26 / MINI-29 | Mitsubishi L3E | 3 |
| MINI-33 | Mitsubishi S3L2 | 3 |
| MINI-44 | Mitsubishi S4L2 | 4 |
| MINI-55 | Mitsubishi S4L2 (turbo) | 4 |
| MINI-62 | Mitsubishi S4Q2 | 4 |
| SM-82 / SM-94 | Mitsubishi S4S (turbo) | 4 |
The exceptions — do not assume Mitsubishi
- SK-60 → Kubota V2403. The SK-series is Kubota, not Mitsubishi.
Its internals cross to Kubota V2403 numbers (same block as the Beta 60 / Nanni N4.65).
marinized Mazda automotive diesel blocks. Parts cross to the Mazda base engine, not Mitsubishi.
- SN-85 → Nissan TD27. The SN-series is Nissan-based; internals cross
to Nissan TD27 numbers.
If your engine is an SK, SM-75/90 or SN, ignore the "Mitsubishi" assumption and follow the correct donor above.
Find your Solé's parts
Open your model above; the base-engine line on each page states the donor and confidence, and the "Industrial / tractor part equivalents" view lists the base block's parts. For raw-water pump impellers and filters, see the impeller, oil filter and fuel filter charts.
Several Mitsubishi block codes above are inferred from the engine's bore/stroke and displacement "fingerprint" and are graded likely — confirm against a Mitsubishi industrial dealer before ordering. See our Methodology.
