23446483 Nipple | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta nipple from the Lubricating and Oil System group, listed at 0.186 kg. No thread size or engine application list is published against this number, so order by part number against the oil circuit it belongs to rather than by measuring the old one.

⚙️ Key Features

• Lubricating and Oil System group
• 0.186 kg
• No published thread size or engine application list, so order by part number
• A pressurised oil-circuit joint, so sealing matters

🔌 Function

Provides a threaded connection point in the lubricating oil circuit for a line or hose to attach to.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Oil weeping from the thread or running down the casting below it
• Oil pressure lower than usual, or slow to come up when cold
• Thread damaged, picked up or seized when the fitting is disturbed
• Sealing face scored or corroded so the joint will not stay dry
• Cracking around the hex, usually after over-tightening

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew any sealing washer that came off with the old fitting rather than reusing it
• Check and clean the port and the internal drilling before fitting, an oil-circuit fitting is a poor place for debris
• Run the engine and check oil pressure and the joint for weeping before returning the boat to service

📦 Condition
