# 3801513 Longblock | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured long block from the Engine group, weighing 1356.24 kg and listed for 4 applications on TAD-series engines. Volvo Penta define a long block as the cylinder block assembly with pistons, connecting rods, crankshaft, camshaft, cylinder heads, rocker mechanism, oil pan and valve cover, so the intake and fuel system, exhaust manifold, turbocharger, oil cooler and circulation pump all transfer from your old engine. It is the one long block covering three separate D16 industrial tables - the TAD1641VE and TAD1642VE up to serial number 2016010024, the same engines from serial number 2016010025 onwards, and the TAD1643VE - and no short block is catalogued for any of them. It supersedes part number 3801516, catalogued under the same name. It is supplied on an exchange basis: core deposit 3804513 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned, so both numbers appear on the order.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Low or uneven compression
-   Heavy crankcase blow-by
-   Knock or rumble from the bottom end
-   Oil pressure below specification when hot
-   Coolant and oil mixing

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   An old order under 3801516 now resolves to this number
-   The long block is the same across the serial breakpoint, but the cylinder heads are not - 3801395 and 3801805 are the without-VCB heads and 3801806 the with-VCB head, so confirm which your engine takes
-   A heavy freight item needing lifting gear and a prepared engine bay; the old long block returns as the core once the engine is running again, releasing deposit 3804513
