Engine Oils
|
Gasoline Engine OilNon-Synthetic Break-in Oil Gasoline Engine Oil For use in all Volvo Penta inboard/outboard marine gasoline engines with and without a catalytic converter. This conventional motor oil is recommended for 100 hour service intervals. Viscosity: SAE 10W-30
|
 |
Synthetic Gasoline Engine OilSAE 30 Synthetic Engine Oil (SAE 10W-40 Synthetic Engine Oil) Volvo Penta has discontinued the straight 30 weight oil and now recommends SAE 10W-40 synthetic. Volvo Penta states that the straight 30 weight oil and the new 10W-40 multi-grade can be used together with no issues. For gas engines newer than 2002. For diesel engines, Volvo no longer offers synthetic 20 weight oil (40005015 (quart) and 21153635 (5 gallon). Viscosity: SAE 10W-40 |
 |
VDS-4 (15W 40) Diesel Engine OilVDS-4 covers even more stringent requirements on piston cleanliness than VDS-3. The high quality of VDS-3 allows in certain cases an increase in drain intervals. Viscosity: SAE 15W-40 |
Transmission Oils
 |
Transmission OilSAE 80W-90 GL-5 Gear Oil Protects drives and transmissions and provides excellent corrosion protection. Withstands high temperatures without breaking down. This product was developed for earlymodel single and DuoProp sterndrives, including: 280DP, 290DP, 290SP, SP-A, SP-A1, DP-A and DPA-1. Viscosity: SAE 80W-90 |
 |
Synthetic Transmission OilA fully synthetic oil of the highest quality for drives and transmissions. Specially tested by Volvo Penta in drives and transmissions. Because the oil is synthetic, it provides excellent protection against wear at both high and low extremes of temperature. It also withstands very high temperatures without breaking down, and can tolerate high loads without wear. Viscosity: SAE 75W-90, SAE 75W-140 Note: SAE 75W-140 is for heavy-duty, long runs, and higher water temps per owner's manual on certain drives.
|
75W 90 Synthetic GL-5 Gear Oil Lubricant For late-model Volvo Penta sterndrives, including SX, DP-A2, DP-B, DP-B1, DP-C, DP-D, DP-E, DP-R, DP-S, DP-SM, DPS, DPS-A OXi, DPS-B, DPS-B OXi, XDP, DPX, DPH, DPH-C DPR, and IPS units. |
Hydraulic Oil
 |
Hydraulic OilProtects against wear at high and low temperatures. Also provides excellent corrosion protection. Particularly suitable for marine use. Does not affect seal materials. Viscosity: ISO VG 15
|
 |
Compressor OilSpecially tested in Volvo Penta compressors. Fully synthetic oil that withstands both high and low temperatures. Protects compressor against corrosion. Viscosity: ISO VG 68

Coolant
 |
Coolant - ConcentrateYellow and green coolants may not be mixed. |
 |
Heavy Duty Coolant - Ready MixedAn ethylene glycol based antifreeze containing inhibitors from freezing, overheating, rust, and corrosion when used as recommended. Protects all cooling system metal surfaces including aluminum.Will not damage finishes or rubber. You do not need to add water to the ready-mixed coolant. Shipping weight: 9.8 lbs per gallon. Protects down to -25° C. Yellow and green coolants may not be mixed. |
Coolant System CleanerHigh engine temperature can be caused by build-up of deposits in the cooling system and can occur after long running times or use of mineral rich watetr. When this occurs, the cooling system must be cleaned. This cleaner is a citric acid-based solvent with the addition of a neutralizer. For green coolant only.

Misc
Corrosion ShieldPenetrates to the corrosion cells to stop corrosive effects. Leaves protective film layer. Repellant to salt spray residue.
|
 |
Power Trim & Tilt FluidFormulated to provide the viscosity necessary to ensure peak power trim pump performance and longevity. All temperature use.
|
|
 |
Locking FluidProtection fluid for screws and nuts. Permits removal in the normal manner. The protection fluid is effective on lightly oiled surfaces as well as preventing corrosion, leakage, and vibration.
|
Electric Oil Drain PumpAn electric oil drain pump makes essential oil changes considerably easier. the pump is permanently installed, thsu eliminating the dirt and inconvenience of manually draining the sump. The pump is self-priming and suitable for flushing as well as as a bilge pump. !!!Note!!! Do NOT use the pump for pumping paraffin or petrol. |
|
 |
Bilge Oil BoomThe Bilge Oil Boom is ideal for keeping your bilge safe and clean. Simply drop of anchor in the bilge and the Bilge Oil Boom will efficiently absorb waste oil, fuel and hydraulic fluid. Does not absorb water and will stay afloat even when soaked with oil. Absorbs up to 4.5 liters. Boom is 380 x 130mm. 100% polypropylene absorbent surrounded by spunbond, polyproylene sock and nylon netting. |
 |
Oil & Water Sorbent PadsThe Oil & Water Sorbent Pads can be used for all engine and drive-related spills and leaks. Absorbs petroleum products, cooling liquid, water, etc. You can even use it to wipe off the bilge after the work is done. Absorbs up the .7 liters per pad. 400 x 500 x 4.7mm. Sold in a roll of four pads. Made from recycled polypropylene. |
 |
ATF-OilProtects against wear, even at high temperatures. Also provides a very good corrosion protection. !!!Must NOT be used where API-GL5 is recommended!!! ATF-Oil, type Dexron III Saildrives, S-Drives. For 130S-A, 130S-B, 130SR-A, 130SR-B, 150S-A, 150S-B, 150SR-A and 150SR-B, Volvo Penta recommends changing from ATF engine oil to SAE 15W-40 at the next oil change. (Effective May 2011) |

Recommendations
Click here to see how much oil Volvo Penta recommends for your drive.
For a list of Volvo Penta Chemical Products and their Aftermarket Equivalents, click here.
Marine Parts Express recommends that customers with older gas engines and outdrives NOT use the synthetic oil in the engines or drives because of overheating issues.
If you have been using synthetic oil with no problems, then we recommend you continue to do so and not switch back.
