# 833780 Spacer | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta spacer 0.20 mm thick, from the Engine group, listed for 4 applications across MD series engines. Thickness is the whole point of the part - the companion spacer 833781 is 0.30 mm thick, so order by the thickness the clearance calls for and check the number on the packet before fitting.

## 🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

-   Volvo Penta MD11C
-   Volvo Penta MD11D
-   Volvo Penta MD17C
-   Volvo Penta MD17D

-   **Engine Family:** MD

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.20 mm thick
-   Companion spacer 833781 is 0.30 mm thick
-   4 applications across MD series engines
-   Engine group
-   TH=0.2mm (Volvo assembly listing)

## 🔌 Function

Sets a running or end clearance by shimming one component away from its seat by a controlled amount.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Clearance measuring outside specification on assembly
-   Knock or rumble from the shimmed joint in service
-   Spacer picked up, scored or partly extruded on removal
-   Fastener losing torque as the shim beds in

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Measure the clearance with the shim in place rather than assuming a thickness - 0.20 mm and 0.30 mm are hard to tell apart by eye
-   Fit a spacer only on clean, dry, undamaged faces, and never stack two to make up a thickness

## 📦 Condition

-   Genuine Volvo Penta part
-   Brand new
-   Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
