Volvo Penta 2003 Core

This engine was made in 1997, but never installed until 2014. When I purchased it, it was still in factory packing crates. I put 500 hours on it, but it suffered damage when the raw-water pump seals failed and allowed saltwater to accumulate in the oil sump. The engine seized up during a period of inactivity, and I removed it from the boat in July. It has been sitting (inside) ever since. In many ways, it is like new. I don't have the time or patience to fix it or part it out, and I want it gone.



It is free of charge. I have removed the Balmar alternator, but will include a factory alternator, a set of injectors, and some misc spares that I picked up here and there. With some patience and new bearings/gaskets, it could (probably) be a running engine again. If not, it is worth something to anyone who wants to part it out.


I don't want to ship it. Plan to pick it up in Hernando Beach, FL, an hour north of Tampa on the Gulf Coast. Bring friends. I can help with a cherry picker, but you're on your own when it comes to loading it up.

Re: Volvo Penta 2003 Core

Would you please let me know what model of Volvo is this and please provide a few phơtos if that is possible. I like to pick up this engine to fix and use it but want to make sure this is the right application for my boat and this is within my capability. My email is long1pham@aol.com and cell phone 949-500-9887.
Thank you.

I want it! I really need it for my boat. My VP2003 has some other problems and would possibly get to combine and make one. Let me know if it’s available. Thank you.
