3806230 Injector Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for a injector, in the Fuel System group. It is the refundable charge raised against the old injector when the exchange unit is bought, and it comes back once the worn injector is returned. The line itself is an accounting entry rather than a part, so nothing ships against it on its own. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering the exchange unit it belongs to takes part number 3803230, which is not a number we carry ourselves, so ask us to look the exchange unit up before you order against it. It shares its published weight of 0.17 kg with 3806232 and 3806237, so the figure will not tell them apart and the deposit has to be ordered by the number of the injector coming off.

⚙️ Key Features

• Core deposit line, not a injector you can fit
• Belongs with the exchange unit, part number 3803230
• Refunded when the old injector is returned
• Published at 0.17 kg
• Weight shared with 3806232 and 3806237, so order by part number

🔌 Function

As a line item it carries the refundable core charge on the exchange; the injector itself meters the fuel charge into the cylinder and breaks it into a fine spray at the pressure and timing the engine is set up for.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the injector being exchanged
• One cylinder down on power, with the engine shaking at idle
• Smoke at the exhaust and a smell of unburnt fuel around the engine space
• A hard diesel rattle that follows the cylinder rather than the throttle
• On removal, a nozzle found blocked, dribbling, or with the spray pattern broken up

🛠️ Service Notes

• The charge is refunded when the worn injector is returned, so keep the old unit and send it back rather than scrapping it
• Ordering this number on its own supplies no part - it is the deposit that rides beside the exchange unit, part number 3803230, which we do not list ourselves, so ask us to look it up before ordering
• Renew the seat washer and any sealing ring when the exchange injector goes in, and prove the fuel filtration and the leak-off line before a second injector is condemned

📦 Condition

• Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
