Volvo Penta AQ170c

Inlägg av marco555 »

Hello everybody,

I am new here so I wil indroduce myself.
My name is Marco, 45 years old from the Netherlands.
I don't own a Fjord but a Fairline 32 flybridge sedan.
The reason I joint here is that I have a problem with the starboard engine of my boat,
It's fittet with 2 Volvo Penta AQ170c engines witch also common installed where in the Fjord.

The engine has underpressure in the oilsump so I think te pistonrings are worn, the engine needs overhauling and I am in search for a good adress for parts.
Here in the Netherlands isn't much availeble so I hope to find a good adress in Sweden.
2 new engines is of course an option but I like to keep the boat original and I like the engines very much.

If this is not allowed here then my excuses in advantage

Greetings,
Marco

There are differences but mor related to the cooling system. I the motor has freshwater cooling with heat exchanger The cylinder head on some models have different sized valves.
