Exhaust Manifold Aluminum Anodes

Post by jnn13 »

hi - at the NY Boat show last month, the Volvo guy from the Volvo booth walked us through the Volvo Penta V8-300 DP setup. The engine was set up on a pedestal, so it was easy to see all the parts he was taking about. He told me not to forget to maintain (i.e., replace) the two exhaust manifold anodes (one on each side). They are actually mentioned in the manual, but no part number is provided. I spent a lot of time Googling for replacement anodes, and could hardly even find a reference to the anodes. There may have been one seller based in Australia, but that's it.

Anyone else even aware of these anodes, and where to find replacements?

Thanks
JN

To me it sounds like a good dealer parts question.
