# 3804091 Engine Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for an exchange engine, listed under the Engine group at 1094.5 kg. It is the refundable charge on the worn engine you return rather than a part in its own right, and ordering it alone supplies nothing. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering it pairs with part 3801091. At 1094.5 kg the return needs a crane or hoist and a rated pallet.

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Refundable core deposit, not a fitted part
-   Pairs with part 3801091
-   1094.5 kg
-   Freight-scale return, needs a crane and a rated pallet

## 🔌 Function

Carries the refundable core charge on an exchange engine; the engine it covers is the vessel's prime mover, turning fuel into shaft power.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the engine being exchanged
-   Smoke that hangs at idle and thickens under load
-   Low oil pressure hot, with a rumble from low in the engine
-   Coolant loss with no external leak, or emulsion under the filler cap
-   Metal glitter in the filter and compression down across the bank

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   The deposit is refunded when the old engine is returned; ordering this line on its own supplies no part
-   Return the engine complete and drained, with its ancillaries as they came off, since a stripped or incomplete core can reduce or void the refund
-   Book lifting gear rated well above 1094.5 kg, allowing for the cradle as well as the engine

## 📦 Condition

-   Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
