trouble identifying 1984 volvo 290A ( engine)

[LEROYDOZOIS]

for the life of me i cannot figure out which engine i have in my 26ft sleekcraft.

the valve cover stamp says ( cu 42039 ) on one side and the other side shows a sticker saying ( 290A )

the block # says 14010207 ( cast iron numbers )

and ive seen the diagram showing where the tin tab is located but i cannot find it on my boat... im not sure if its behind the oil filter or what

if it means anything. 01-84 is stamped on the water housing

any help is greatly appreciated

It's a 5.7 Engine. Marine Gasoline Engines for AQ290A - 7744030 - Volvo Penta

Go to the link below and type in AQ290 in the engine type area and download the owners manual. Lots of specs and details in it.

Publication search - Publications / Manuals : Volvo Penta
