{"product_id":"16318-plug-genuine-volvo-penta","title":"16318 Plug | Genuine Volvo Penta Part","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔧 Product Description\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n This is the early-type plug (part number 16318) used across Volvo Penta's larger-displacement industrial and marine diesel engines, including the TD, TID, TAMD, TWD and TAD families. It closes off a threaded opening or passage in the engine assembly so that oil, coolant or air is retained and directed as intended. The \"Early type\" designation is what separates this item from the later-production plug used in the same position, so match it to your engine's build when ordering.\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  MD, TMD, D, TD, AQD, TWD, TID, TAMD, THAMD, TAD\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 part number 16318\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Early type version - not interchangeable with the later-production plug for this position\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Net weight 0.014 kg\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Fits Volvo Penta D45, D60, D70, D100, D120 and 121\/122\/1210\/1230 series industrial and marine diesel engines, including TD, TID, TMD, TAMD, THAMD, TWD, TAD and AQD variants\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Engine type: Volvo Penta 6-, 10- and 12-litre diesel\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Quantity varies by assembly, most commonly one\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The plug seals a threaded port or passage in the engine so that pressurised oil, coolant or air is contained within its intended circuit.
