Because the available public references for this number are stronger on assembly position than on a broad engine-family list, the safest fitment standard is the exact Volvo Penta parts breakdown for the engine being serviced rather than matching by appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number Fitment Notice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitment can vary by engine family, pump revision, and serial-number range. Confirm Volvo Penta part number \u003cstrong\u003e3888837\u003c\/strong\u003e against your engine serial number and the correct seawater pump diagram before ordering, especially on engines that may have had prior cooling-system service or updated pump components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen This Part Needs Replacement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace this gasket whenever the seawater pump flange or adjacent cooling-system joint has been opened, or when the original gasket shows seepage, flattening, tearing, swelling, or damage during disassembly. Replacing it during adjacent pump or hose-connection service is usually the safer move than reusing an old compressed seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall on clean, flat mating surfaces with all old gasket material removed. Confirm the gasket matches the exact flange position in the seawater pump diagram before assembly, and tighten related hardware evenly to help prevent repeat leaks. Matching the gasket together with the neighboring flange and hose-attachment components shown in the diagram is a practical cross-check during service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent Volvo Penta parts references show earlier part number \u003cstrong\u003e820877\u003c\/strong\u003e updating to \u003cstrong\u003e3888837\u003c\/strong\u003e.

On Volvo Penta cooling-system service, using the exact seawater pump diagram and serial-number-based lookup usually saves more time than reopening the job for a small leak later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ships same or next day for fast Canada wide shipping. ⚓\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43564037668900,"sku":"3888837","price":17.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/ea8a4774-aa69-4b23-b6fd-2350ce0f6cef.png?v=1776383761","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/volvo-903","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
