It is the later-specification rod that supersedes the earlier 463021 connecting rod, and it covers a broad span of AQ, BB and MB series marine engines. Connecting rods are normally replaced as a matched set during a rebuild or after bearing damage.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🚤 Compatibility\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Engine Family:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  MB, AQ, BB\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Year Range:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  Approximately 1960s-1980s, engine-number and piston-family controlled\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Serial Range:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  MOXXXX\/107001-\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Full model list at the end of this description.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Genuine Volvo Penta OEM connecting rod\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Correct current part number 1219237\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Supersedes Volvo 463021 and related 328735 references\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Used across selected four- and six-cylinder Volvo petrol engines\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Must be weight-matched, measured and checked for straightness during overhaul\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Engine type: Volvo four- and six-cylinder petrol engine\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Quantity varies by assembly, most commonly four\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The connecting rod transfers combustion force from the piston to the crankshaft, converting the piston's reciprocating motion into crankshaft rotation.
