Boeing Co. said it was pausing deliveries of some 737 MAX jets because of incorrectly installed parts, disrupting an important business line as the plane maker seeks to improve its finances.

The company said Thursday there would be a significant impact on near-term deliveries of the 737 MAX 7, 737 MAX 8 and larger MAX 8-200 jets, as well as the P-8 military reconnaissance planes that are also based on the 737.
