Description

The Volvo Penta Pump Element 3829555 is a precision diesel fuel-injection pump element used inside Volvo Penta fuel injection pump assemblies that specifically call for this part number. This is an internal metering component, not a complete injection pump, and should be matched by the injection pump tag, Volvo Penta parts diagram, and engine serial number before ordering. Supplier catalog data identifies 3829555 as a Volvo Penta pump element with SKU format VOLVO3829555 and listed weight of approximately 0.138 kg.

Key Features

• Volvo Penta diesel fuel injection pump element
• Part number: 3829555
• Internal precision component for supported injection pump assemblies
• Used where the Volvo Penta fuel-system diagram specifies pump element 3829555
• Approximate listed weight: 0.138 kg
• Genuine OEM Volvo Penta part reference; current availability may be limited, with some catalog data showing the part as discontinued by the manufacturer.

Engine Compatibility

This pump element should be used only on Volvo Penta diesel applications where the fuel injection pump assembly or parts diagram specifically lists 3829555. It should not be treated as a universal pump element across Volvo Penta TAMD, TMD, TAD, or D-series engines.

For correct fitment, match by:

• Engine model and serial number
• Injection pump identification tag
• Existing pump element number
• Volvo Penta fuel injection pump component diagram
• Pump calibration / fuel-delivery specification

Serial Number Fitment Notice

Pump elements are calibration-sensitive parts. Even if two Volvo Penta engines use similar-looking injection pump assemblies, the internal element can differ by pump model, engine rating, governor setup, fuel delivery, and serial range. Confirm the existing pump and diagram before ordering.

When This Part Needs Replacement

Replace this pump element when a diesel injection specialist confirms wear or failure inside the injection pump. Common service indicators can include hard starting, uneven running, smoke under load, low power, poor throttle response, internal fuel leakage, or an injection pump that cannot be calibrated correctly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be handled by a qualified diesel fuel-injection technician. The injection pump must be kept clean, assembled correctly, and calibrated after service. Inspect related internal pump components at the same time, including delivery valves, sealing rings, springs, control sleeves, tappets, and any required small seals or washers. Do not install based on appearance alone.

Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers

• Volvo Penta 3829555 — pump element reference
• VOLVO3829555 — catalog SKU format used in some Volvo Penta parts systems

Parts Desk Insight

This is a pump-shop part. The safest way to sell it is to match the pump tag and diagram, not just the engine model. A wrong pump element can cause calibration problems even when it physically fits inside the pump body.
