It serves as a direct replacement for OEM 41058, restoring correct spark distribution to the ignition system after the original cap has cracked, corroded, or worn out from heat cycling and vibration typical in inboard engine compartments. The cap mounts to the distributor housing and routes high-voltage current from the coil to the correct spark plug wire terminal in firing order, so a worn or contaminated cap can cause misfires, hard starting, or rough idle on these GM-based marine V8s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part also cross-references with a range of aftermarket and OEM numbers used across Volvo Penta, Crusader, and other Prestolite-equipped marine ignition systems, making it easy to identify as the correct replacement regardless of which catalog number a buyer starts from. At 4 x 4 x 4 inches and 0.42 pounds, it is sized as a standard single-cap replacement, not a multi-part tune-up kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e EMP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300-01088\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Distributor Cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Engines:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volvo Penta V8, 190-415 HP GM engines with Prestolite conventional ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIgnition System Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prestolite Conventional Ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 x 4 x 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 840080453293\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Cross Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41058\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlso Cross-References With:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volvo 3853815, Volvo 841070, Sierra 18-5352, CDI E64-0016, Crusader 41076, GLM 71560, Mallory 9-29412, Pleasurecraft RA108003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta V8, 190-415 HP GM engines with Prestolite conventional ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e41058\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat engines does the EMP 300-01088 distributor cap fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 300-01088 is designed for Volvo Penta V8, 190-415 HP GM engines equipped with Prestolite conventional ignition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the EMP 300-01088 replace OEM part 41058?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the EMP 300-01088 distributor cap is a direct replacement for OEM number 41058.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the EMP 300-01088 the same as a Sierra 18-5352 distributor cap?\u003c\/strong\u003e It cross-references with Sierra 18-5352, along with CDI E64-0016, Crusader 41076, GLM 71560, Mallory 9-29412, and Pleasurecraft RA108003, so any of these numbers point to the same EMP 300-01088 cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of this distributor cap?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 300-01088 measures 4 x 4 x 4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the EMP 300-01088 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e This distributor cap weighs 0.42 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the EMP 300-01088 work with Volvo Penta parts 3853815 or 841070?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the EMP 300-01088 replaces Volvo Penta numbers 3853815 and 841070.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of ignition system does this cap require?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 300-01088 is built specifically for engines with Prestolite conventional ignition, not electronic ignition systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included when I order the EMP 300-01088?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 300-01088 is sold as a single distributor cap, not a full tune-up kit or bundled rotor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this cap fit a Crusader inboard engine?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 300-01088 cross-references with Crusader part number 41076, indicating fitment on Crusader engines using that ignition component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know if my distributor cap needs replacing?\u003c\/strong\u003e Signs like misfires, hard starting, or rough idle on a Volvo Penta V8 GM engine with Prestolite ignition can indicate the distributor cap, such as the EMP 300-01088, has worn out or corroded and needs replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EMP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991284101339,"sku":"EMP-300-01088","price":27.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/EMP_300-01088_MerCruiser_Volvo_Distributor_Cap__48498.1722515414.500.750.jpg?v=1785188731","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/emp-300-01088-distributor-cap-replaces-volvo-3853815-fits-1971-2005-v8-190-415-hp-gm-engines-with-prestolite-conventional-ignition","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
