22398942 Bracket | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

A genuine Volvo Penta mounting bracket assigned to the fuel-system/intercooler component group. It supports the specified cooler, pipe or adjoining fuel/air-system component and maintains the factory alignment needed to prevent vibration damage. The exact engine application is, so this bracket should be selected by part number rather than appearance alone.

⚙️ Key Features

• OEM bracket for a Volvo Penta fuel-system/intercooler installation
• Maintains the original position and clearance of the supported component
• Reduces vibration load on cooler, hose and pipe connections
• Factory hole spacing and formed geometry
• Suitable for the heat and vibration environment around the engine
• Part-number-specific design; visually similar brackets may have different offsets
• Engine type: Volvo Penta diesel installation using bracket 22398942

🔌 Function

The bracket anchors the designated cooler, line or fuel/air-system component to the engine. Correct support prevents pipe fatigue, hose chafing, connector stress and movement that can create leaks.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Supported component moving or vibrating
• Cracks at bends or mounting holes
• Hose or pipe chafing
• Repeated leakage at a nearby connection
• Loose or missing mounting hardware
• Bracket distortion causing poor alignment

🛠️ Service Notes

• Offer the bracket up and start every fastener by hand before tightening any of them, so the component is not pulled into a strained position
• Check the mating faces are clean, flat and free of corrosion scale — a bracket that does not sit flat will work loose and let the component move
• Renew self-locking nuts, lock washers, tab washers or thread-locking compound wherever the original assembly used them, and tighten to the figure given in the workshop manual for your engine
• Where the bracket carries a rubber mount or bush, renew that at the same time rather than reusing a perished one
• On brackets in the inlet and exhaust area, never force alignment to make the holes line up — cure the misalignment at its source, or the bracket and the component it holds will both crack

📦 Condition
