Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this air filter fits my specific engine model?
This filter fits a wide range of Volvo Penta KAD, KAMD, and TAMD series engines. Please cross-reference your engine model with the detailed compatibility list provided above to ensure a perfect match. Also, confirm the OEM part number (876185) matches what is specified for your engine.
What are the common signs of a clogged or failing air filter?
Symptoms of a dirty air filter include reduced engine performance, increased black smoke from the exhaust, higher fuel consumption, and difficulty starting the engine. A visual inspection will often show a dark, debris-clogged filter element.
How often should I replace my marine diesel's air filter?
Replacement intervals depend on operating conditions. In dusty or salty environments, more frequent changes are needed. As a general guideline, inspect the filter during every routine service and plan to replace it at least once per season or every 200-250 operating hours.
Can I clean and reuse this air filter?
No, this filter is designed for single use and should be replaced when dirty. Attempting to clean it with compressed air or liquids can damage the filter media, reducing its effectiveness and potentially allowing harmful particles into the engine.
What is the difference between this aftermarket filter and the genuine Volvo Penta part?
While this is an aftermarket part, it is manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, filtration, and durability. It provides a reliable and cost-effective alternative to the original branded part without sacrificing performance.
Are any special tools required for installation?
In most cases, you will only need basic hand tools like a screwdriver or a wrench set to open the air filter housing. No specialized equipment is typically necessary for a standard replacement.
