3804031 Engine Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for an exchange engine, listed under the Engine group. It is the refundable charge raised against the worn engine returned at the end of an exchange, not a component, and ordering it supplies nothing to fit. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering it pairs with part 3801031.

⚙️ Key Features

• Refundable core deposit, not a fitted part
• Pairs with part 3801031
• Engine group

🔌 Function

Carries the refundable core charge on an exchange engine; the engine it covers is the vessel's prime mover, turning fuel into shaft power.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the engine being exchanged
• Smoke that persists once warm, blue on the overrun or white under load
• Falling oil pressure hot, with a rumble or knock from the bottom end
• Coolant loss with no external leak, or exhaust gas showing in the header tank
• Compression down on several cylinders, hard starting and flat power

🛠️ Service Notes

• The deposit is refunded when the old engine is returned; ordering this line on its own supplies no part
• Return the engine complete and drained, with its ancillaries as they came off, since a stripped or incomplete core can reduce or void the refund
• Confirm the exchange engine number before raising this line, as the deposit follows the unit rather than the installation

📦 Condition

• Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
