    Hey guys, My father has a difficult time changing the oil on his 240+t and is looking for options on relocating the oil filter-- the 740t arm does not allow for the oil filter to easily be removed between the exhaust and the firewall. We want something that is OEM quality. What are his...

    240 Driver side window fogs up and sweet smell under accel. Options?

    Hey guys, I'm certain the issue is with my heater core, but I'm not getting any noticeable leaks, only smell and a foggy windshield. Is it possible that something surrounding the heater core has deteriorated? If the issue happens to be the heater core and I cannot replace it for a while...

    240 Oil Filler Cap Seal Won't Seal

    Hey guys, My oil filler cap won't seal to my valve cover, which is creating a stumbling idle and leaking oil onto my exhaust while the car is running. I've tried a new OEM seal and a solid metal oil filler cap, which have reduced the issue, but it's still there. Car is running silicone heater...

    Price Estimate for Custom Exhaust Work?

    Hey everyone, I'm looking to replace the 3" pipe under my transmission crossmember with a custom two-pipe setup that flows equally well, for both clearance and a better visual tuck. (It's nearly impossible to get the 3" to tuck well) The exhaust I currently have on the car is a 3" turbo-back...

    240 Alternator Tensioner Bracket Options And Questions

    My dad's 245 has a Denso 100a alternator. I just realized his upper bracket was installed incorrectly, in the "prone to shearing the bolt in the block" way. I'm looking for part numbers, pictures, and options for mounting this safely and sturdily. It's a '94 B230FT in the stock 240 alternator...

    Mix & Match Oil Cooler Components?

    Hey guys, My 240 turbo oil cooler kit does not clear the turbo oil feed hard line for my 15g. I think at this point my best bet is to run the 7/9 series extension arm to the oil cooler. Is it possible to run the 7/9 hard lines to the 240t braided lines and oil cooler, or will I have to get...

    240 Fuel Line to Fuel Rail: Size, and/or Volvo Part Number?

    Car's a 1993 240 with LH2.4. Anybody know the size of the fuel hose that clamps to the fuel rail? (Not the one that threads on) My dad's is cracked and definitely needs replacing. Thanks in advance!

    240 1993 245 - Air Always Comes Through Vents

    Hey guys, Fixing up my dad's car and noticed that warm air is always blowing through his vents, even with the recirc button pressed. It's also always hot. With the latter, I assume he needs a new heater control valve assembly, but the former is puzzling me. The air comes through relative to...

    Hey guys, My boost leak test revealed that my throttle body is leaking from the throttle shaft. Is there a particular gasket for this part or should I source a new throttle body? Thanks! :)

    Best bang-for-buck high-z injector for 250-300whp?

    Hey guys, I'm gonna pop my 48lb/hr Accel injectors on eBay. I am looking for something closer to OEM. What high-z injectors do you guys recommend for this power goal? Also, how much do non-EGR intake manifolds typically run? (none in the yards right now) Thanks in advance!

    240 Boost leaks from injector seals and intake manifold

    Hey guys, I have boost leaks at 5+psi from the intake manifold gasket near the firewall and injector seal from cylinder 3. I've replaced the injector seals with Viton 203 grommets coated in oil and cleaned out the intake manifold injector seats from all corrosion and other gunk. I've also...

    240 LH2.4 Knock Sensor Code and intermittent high idle after driving

    Hey guys, My car seems to have developed an odd problem. After driving, it seems to want to idle around 1300 RPM. If I blip the throttle (effectively triggering the TPS), it will dip down to proper RPM and then rise quickly back up to 1300RPM after two seconds or so. I checked my codes and I...

    Camber Plate Install Modification - Adding Thrust Bearings, Spacers

    Hey guys, I'm looking to prevent coil bind and the strut nuts from popping off when driving my 240. The top spacers supplied with Scotty's plates don't work, and the bottom spacers have a precarious design that doesn't allow for the spherical bearings to align similar to the BMW camber plate's...

    240 Koni Yellow Strut Diameter?

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anybody had numbers on the diameter of the tops of 240 Koni Sports immediately after the threads. I cannot drop the shocks and measure with a micrometer at the moment, but the Koni representative gave me the wrong numbers and said they were 17mm.
