Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this filter fits my Volvo Penta engine?
A: Review the "Compatible Engine Models" list to ensure your specific model is included. This part is a direct replacement for OEM parts 21646645 and 3582358. Comparing the dimensions and images to your old part is also a reliable way to confirm fitment.
Q: What are the signs that my air filter needs replacing?
