Service Interval

Replace the raw water impeller as part of scheduled cooling system maintenance typically every 2 years or 200300 hours, whichever comes first, or per the applicable Volvo Penta maintenance schedule. Replace sooner if the vanes are cracked, stiff, permanently bent, torn, or missing. Reduced seawater discharge or unexplained engine overheating can also indicate a worn or damaged impeller.

If blades have broken away, inspect downstream cooling passages and heat exchangers for missing vane material before returning the engine to service.

Installation Notes

Remove the pump cover and inspect the cover plate and pump housing for scoring or excessive wear. Lubricate the new impeller with the supplied lubricant before installation. Install new sealing components supplied with the kit. After reassembly, open the seawater supply, start the engine, and verify strong raw water flow and a leak-free pump housing.

Parts Desk Insights

22222936 is the small- and medium-engine Volvo Penta impeller kit it covers D1/D2, MD-series, and several classic AQ/BB applications. The most common ordering mistake is assuming it fits D4 or D6 engines because many Volvo Penta impellers look similar. Matching the pump and engine model number is the safest way to confirm fitment. When a customer orders this kit, recommend adding the pump cover screw kit (21951334) to the order it is a low-cost add-on that prevents stripped fasteners on the next impeller service.
