Air Filter Insert 3825038 for Volvo Penta TAMD63 TAMD63L-A TAMD63L-1 TAMD63P-A Sierra 18-79007 — Germany Local Warehouse
Air Filter Insert 3825038 for Volvo Penta TAMD63 TAMD63L-A TAMD63L-1 TAMD63P-A Sierra 18-79007 — Germany Local Warehouse
Product Overview
Air filter insert for Volvo Penta TAMD63 marine diesels, supplied as 1 filter element in a 20 x 14 x 11 cm (7.9 x 5.5 x 4.3 in) box. It replaces Volvo Penta 3825038 and Sierra 18-79007, and it drops into the original air box on the TAMD63L-A, TAMD63L-1 and TAMD63P-A engines. Dispatched from our Germany local warehouse.
This is a service item that gets overlooked because nothing fails when it is dirty. The engine still starts, still idles at the berth, and only shows the problem when it is asked for full power on a long run: black smoke, a slow build of boost and a top speed that has quietly fallen by a knot or two.
In a boat the element also collects oil mist from the crankcase breather, which is why marine air filters load up differently from the same engine in a road vehicle. Once the pleats are dark and oily through, cleaning will not bring it back.

Black Smoke, Oil Mist and the Engine Room
| What the Owner Notices | What It Means | What to Do |
|---|---|---|
| Black smoke under load | Air restricted, the engine is over fuelling | Change the element before touching the pump |
| Top speed down a knot or two | Boost builds later than it should | Element and intake hoses together |
| Element dark and oily through the pleats | Crankcase mist loading the paper | Replace, cleaning will not recover it |
| Dust in the air box | Intake drawing from a dirty engine room | Clean the box and check the intake route |
| Whistle from the intake | Restriction or a loose hose clamp | Check clamps, then the element |
| Service due by hours | Interval not by calendar | Change at the book interval, note the hours |
Fitting Notes
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Confirm your engine is a TAMD63 model, the TAMD61 and TAMD71 use a different element |
| 2 | Compare the old element shape and depth before ordering |
| 3 | Clean the air box out before the new element goes in, loose dust goes straight into the engine |
| 4 | Check the intake hose clamps at the same time, a loose clamp lets dirty air past the filter |
| 5 | Seat the element square in the housing, a tilted element lets air bypass the paper |
| 6 | Check the crankcase breather is routed into the intake and not leaking oil onto the element |
| 7 | Write the engine hours on the housing, this is a service item measured in hours not seasons |
| 8 | Run the engine under load and confirm the smoke has cleared before the next trip |
