17515206 Fuel Filter | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

This genuine Volvo Penta fuel filter is a service fuel-filtration and water-separation element used in the diesel fuel filtration and water separation. 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 removes fine contamination and separated water from diesel fuel before it reaches the high-pressure fuel system. Selection must be confirmed by OEM part number 17515206, the exact engine/product model, serial number and installed configuration.

🔌 Function

Removes fine contamination and separated water from diesel fuel before it reaches the high-pressure fuel system. Clean the filter head, renew all supplied seals, prefill only where approved, bleed the system and inspect for leakage or air ingress after start-up.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Power loss, hesitation or cutting out under load
• Hard starting or extended cranking
• Visible contamination or water in the filter bowl
• Elevated restriction or low fuel supply pressure downstream
• Fuel weeping at the filter seal or housing

🛠️ Service Notes

• Work clean — cap or cover open connections and keep dirt out of the housing, because contamination introduced at a filter change goes straight to the injection equipment
• Where the design allows it, fill the new filter with clean fuel before fitting, and smear the sealing ring with clean fuel rather than grease
• Renew every seal supplied with the filter and tighten to the marking on the filter or the figure in the workshop manual for your engine; over-tightening distorts the seal and causes leaks
• Prime and bleed the system by the procedure for your engine before cranking, then run up and check the sealing faces for weeps
• Drain and inspect any water trap at the same time and note what comes out — water or dark sludge means the tank and pre-filter need attention too
