3849656 Guide sleeve | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta guide sleeve, published at 0.943 kg. Volvo's own special tools listing records this number as a guide sleeve in the overhaul class, and gives it named partners: it is used with 3849657 and handle 3850609, and drift 3850616 is also listed as used with 3850609 and 3849656 when installing the lower gear bearing race. Our listing has carried it as a guide plate and paired it with 3849672, but Volvo lists 3849672 as a fixture, so the two are different types of tool rather than a matched pair. Guide sleeve 3850619 at 0.708 kg is the other one listed here.

⚙️ Key Features

• Listed by Volvo as a guide sleeve
• Used with 3849657 and handle 3850609
• Also called up by drift 3850616 for the lower gear bearing race
• Overhaul class tool
• 0.943 kg

🔌 Function

Holds the bearing race or component on its correct centre line as it is driven, so it enters straight without picking up on the bore.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Guide bores worn oval or scored
• Sleeve bowed so it no longer runs true
• Corrosion or pick-up on the lead-in
• Cracks at a slot or hole

🛠️ Service Notes

• Handle 3850609 and 3849657 are separate orders and are both named alongside this sleeve
• Check the guide bores for wear before use, as a worn guide lets the tool tilt and defeats the point of using it

📦 Condition

• Genuine Volvo Penta part
• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
