# 21147306 Charge Air Pipe | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Brand-new genuine Volvo Penta rigid charge-air pipe used in the TAD1340VE cooling and turbocharging system. The formed pipe carries compressed, cooled intake air between the charge-air cooler and engine inlet while clearing the radiator/fan package.

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Rigid boosted-air pipe for TAD13VE engines
-   Factory bore and formed route
-   Maintains hose and cooler alignment
-   Pressure-rated for turbocharged intake service
-   Pipe only; hoses, clamps and brackets are separate
-   Engine type: Volvo Penta 12.8-litre turbocharged industrial diesel

## 🔌 Function

Transfers compressed air from the charge-air cooler toward the intake manifold with minimal restriction and leakage.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Boost leak or hissing under load
-   Oil mist at the hose connections
-   Pipe crack or chafing
-   Reduced power
-   High exhaust temperature from lost charge pressure

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Clean both sealing faces before assembly and check the rubber sleeves, seals and clamps; hardened, swollen or split sleeve rubber will not hold boost on a new pipe
-   Seat the pipe fully onto its spigots and set each clamp behind the bead before tightening, so pressure cannot push the joint apart
-   Align and support the pipe on its brackets so it is not pulled into tension — a pipe held under strain chafes, cracks and works its clamps loose
-   Check the bore for oil sludge and soot before fitting and clean it out; carried-over oil softens sleeve rubber and blackens a new pipe from the inside
-   Tighten clamps and any flange fasteners to the figures in the workshop manual for your engine, then re-check them after the first run under load
