We can supply all parts for the Volvo Penta The MD2040 range including the range of MD2040 series spare parts, oil filters and fuel filters, crankcase breathers, drive belts and impellers, genuine MD2040 series exhaust elbows, oils and grease. We are also main Volvo Penta dealers for servicing and technical support.
Volvo Penta MD2040 genuine service parts are made to exacting standards to withstand the harsh saltwater environment in which marine diesel engines operate. If you need helps with any technical issue regarding your Volvo Penta MD2040, please call us.
The heat exchanger on any MD2040 fresh water-cooled variant should be cleaned and all the "O" rings changed, every 5 years to prevent overheating. The MD2040 should run on Volvo green coolant. Mixing VCS yellow and green coolant can cause gelling and blockages within the cooling system.
The other part to check is the exhaust elbow. As a guide, the exhaust elbow, 861906 should be removed every few years and checked for blockages, and replaced every 8 to 10 years, as the outer water jacket of the exhaust can build-up with rust and corrosion.Â
