# 3805348 Coolant Pump Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for a coolant pump, in the Cooling System group. It is the refundable charge raised against the old coolant pump when the exchange unit is bought, and it comes back once the worn coolant pump is returned. The line itself is an accounting entry rather than a part, so nothing ships against it on its own. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering the exchange unit it belongs to takes part number 3802348, which is the number to quote for the component itself. It is the only coolant pump core line in this run of 60 deposit lines, so there is nothing here to confuse it with.

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Core deposit line, not a coolant pump you can fit
-   Belongs with the exchange unit, part number 3802348
-   Refunded when the old coolant pump is returned
-   The only coolant pump core line in this run of 60
-   Cooling System group

## 🔌 Function

As a line item it carries the refundable core charge on the exchange; the pump itself circulates coolant through the block, head and heat exchanger so the engine's heat is carried away.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the coolant pump being exchanged
-   Coolant temperature climbing under load, or a high temperature alarm at the helm
-   Coolant weeping or dripping from the pump's telltale drain
-   Rumble, whine or grinding from the pump, with play felt at the pulley
-   Impeller corroded or eroded, or coolant slow to circulate once the engine is hot

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   The charge is refunded when the worn coolant pump is returned, so keep the old unit and send it back rather than scrapping it
-   Ordering this number on its own supplies no part - it goes on the order beside the exchange unit, part number 3802348
-   Renew the pump's gaskets and seals and flush the system before the exchange unit goes on, and check the belt and tensioner while access is good

## 📦 Condition

-   Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
