Volvo Penta 280SP Sterndrive
Technical information: Oil capacity: 2.6 litres. Most 280SP drives use VDS3 15w/40 oil
Volvo Penta 280SP Sterndrive. We supply all parts for the 280SP sterndrive. The service and spare parts list includes sterndrive prop removal tools, anodes, drive and exhaust bellows, hoses, oils, shaft grease, and shaft seals. Sterndrives use different types of gear oils, depending on the sterndrive type. See the individual sterndrive sections or our downloads section for more information.
It is important to use genuine anodes on a Volvo 280SP Sterndrive. Volvo Penta anodes are made to exact specifications to protect the sterndrive from corrosion. We have seen evidence of counterfeit anodes, and this can lead to a total loss of the sterndrive from corrosion.
280SP Sterndrives use either A-type, B-type, new J-type or C-type stainless propellers.
Please contact us if you need a new propeller. If you require technical help with any aspect of your 280SP Sterndrive or propeller choice, please call us.
Volvo Penta Sterndrives should be serviced at the end of every season to ensure the oil is not emulsified, indicating that the shaft seals require changing. Water intake hoses should also be checked for condition. See our downloads section from the left-hand menu to download a list of oils for each Sterndrive type.
