1696361 Filler Cap | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

This genuine Volvo Penta filler cap is a hydraulic reservoir filler cap used in the power-steering oil-reservoir filler cap. It is manufactured to the original Volvo dimensional, material and interface requirements so the serviced assembly retains its designed alignment, sealing, load capacity and operating reliability. In service, it closes the steering-fluid reservoir filling opening and supports the dipstick/sealing arrangement. Selection must be confirmed by OEM part number 1696361, the exact engine/product model, serial number and the installed assembly configuration.

⚙️ Key Features

• OEM Volvo Penta part number 1696361
• System group: Steering
• Net weight: 0.057 kg
• Fits D12 marine engines and DPX drive installations

🔌 Function

The filler cap seals the filler opening after topping up, retaining fluid and excluding water and dirt. Where the system needs it, the cap also controls venting so pressure does not build in the reservoir.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Fluid weeping or seeping around the cap
• Perished, hardened or missing cap seal
• Cap loose, cross-threaded or not retaining correctly
• Water or contamination found in the reservoir
• Pressure build-up or reservoir deformation from a blocked vent

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit the cap specified for that filler on your engine — caps that look alike differ in seal, venting and pressure rating, and a substitute may hold the system at the wrong pressure or not seal at all
• Wipe the filler neck and check its sealing land for nicks, corrosion and distortion before fitting; many apparent cap leaks are actually neck leaks
• Check the cap's seal is soft and unbroken, and that any vent or breather hole through the cap is clear
• Seat the cap fully, to its stop or lock position — a cap left part-turned will weep, and on a pressurised system can lift
• Never open a cap on a hot pressurised system; let it cool first
