40005179 Nipple | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta nipple from the Fuel System group, weighing 0.308 kg and listed for 14 applications on the D series. It supersedes part number 3843279, which was catalogued earlier as a fuel hose, so an older breakdown may show that number as a hose rather than a fitting — check what you actually need before ordering from the old number.
