🔧 Product Description

A genuine Volvo Penta gasket kit for the engine-mounted air compressor on selected D7 industrial and generating-set engines.

📋 Kit Contents

  • Complete air-compressor gasket and sealing pack - part number 20971221 - quantity 1
  • Individual internal gaskets are not assigned separate Volvo service numbers and are supplied only under kit 20971221

🔌 Function

The kit seals the compressor housing and mounting joints so compressed air, engine oil and coolant remain within their intended passages.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Air leakage or slow pressure build-up
  • Oil or coolant leak around the compressor
  • Gasket damaged during compressor removal
  • Compressor runs hot because a passage seal has failed
  • Repeated leakage after old gaskets are reused

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Check the kit contents against the joints you are actually opening before you start, and lay the parts out so nothing is left in the bag
  • Renew every gasket in the kit as a set; a used gasket has already taken its crush and will not seal a second time
  • Clean the mating faces properly without gouging them — a plastic or hardwood scraper and a solvent are safer than a steel blade, especially on aluminium
  • Fit gaskets dry unless the workshop manual for your engine specifies a sealant, and then use only the sealant it names
  • Tighten the joint evenly in the sequence and to the figures given in the manual for your engine, and re-check after the first heat cycle where the manual calls for it
