1699131 Faucet | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta drain valve for the fuel system, allowing fuel or water to be drained from the system at a controlled point. Its listed predecessor 861456 is catalogued as a faucet, a different part-type description, so that number is shown as a related reference rather than a confirmed same-part supersession. Compatibility is inherited from that predecessor listing.

🔌 Function

The drain valve opens to release fuel or accumulated water from a low point in the fuel system, then seals closed against fuel pressure. It provides a controlled draining point so the system can be serviced without dismantling.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Fuel weeping or dripping from the valve when closed
• Valve seized, stiff or difficult to operate
• Damaged or worn sealing face preventing full closure
• Corrosion or pitting of the valve body
• Thread damage at the mounting point

🛠️ Service Notes

• Have a container ready and drain the system down before removing the old tap; note what fluid the circuit holds and dispose of it properly
• Clean the threads in the housing and use a thread sealant suitable for the fluid and temperature involved, or the sealing washer specified for that fitting
• Do not over-tighten into a cast or aluminium housing — tighten enough to seal and no more, since a stripped drain thread turns a small job into a large one
• Confirm the tap opens fully and, more importantly, closes fully and holds dry before the boat goes back into service
• Work the tap open and closed occasionally in service so it does not seize, and renew a seized tap rather than forcing it
