Hey there everyone, hope y'all are surviving the 'rona virus! Anyway, I've got a (silly?) Question. So I've got 2 1990 760s, one wagon with live axle and the other is a sedan with irs and the dreaded nivomats! Since day one, I've been wanting to convert the sedan to live axle, but that's a...

I made a thread a while ago about having an idle issue with my 1990 764t. The issue is mainly present when the engine is warmed up. In gear, idle is around 950, in park it's around 1600 steady, or 2000rpm for several seconds, and then it cuts out like it lost power until around 1000rpm, than...

Hey there all, so the car in question is a 1990 760 sedan... This morning I bought rear windshield louvers for the car off eBay, and am very excited to get it installed once it arrives! In the description of the item, it claims to install underneath the existing trim. Of course I?ll add some...

Hey all, got another good one for ya. I?ve got a 1990 760 wagon as a parts/project car, that I?m slowly taking parts from to put on my 1990 760 sedan. The issue I?m having is that the car, when warm, has a high idle. In gear it sits at about 950 rpm, but in park it?ll go to 1600-2000 rpm...

Got a good one for you guys today. I?ve been sitting on an IPD turbo cam for a while now and finally decided to install it. Since it?s close to 100 degrees today, I decided to do the break in procedure while driving on the highway, I was able to get the 20 minutes of 2-3k rpm. Everything was...

Hey there everyone. So as some of you may know, last Tuesday my engine let go. I?ve already found a replacement engine that I need to pick up. The car is a 1990 760 turbo, and the new engine is also a 1990. I?ve pulled engines before, but it was always on a fwd manual transmission volvo...

So Monday my motor started knocking, Tuesday it officially crapped the bed. The conrod bearing on the crank end let go, letting the piston slap around in the cylinder. It ended up popping the freeze plug, breaking the cylinder wall between cylinders 1, 2, and 3, and the piston separated from...

1990 760 with a b230ft. Got to work and noticed smoke from under the hood. The car hadn?t overheated or anything like that prior to me parking. I popped the hood and saw coolant spraying out of the seam between the head and block on the exhaust side, close to the front of the car. I?ve never...

So I always seem to get more responses here in the performance than the repair section, and the repair part has been complete anyway. The car in question is a 1990 765 with the wasted spark conversion board installed. I?ve had the board installed for a month of two and haven?t had any...

So I just discovered while backing into my parking spot at home that none of the three brake lights are working in my 1990 765. I?ve checked just one bulb and it was good, and I?m assuming (yeah I know) that the others are good as well. Weird part is, my bulb failure light isn?t illuminating...

Hello out there in TB land. Quick question/problem about the popular wasted spark conversion. The car in question is my 1990 765, of course with lh2.4. I ordered the Buchka wasted spark board from the CFloMoTo website and it promptly arrived. Today I finally mustered the courage to actually...

So today I picked up an electric fan, wiring, and relays from a 97 960. Ive measured the shroud and marked where to cut to make it fit, but I?m clueless on the wiring. Some places say you can use the temp sensor in the radiator, others say that a different sensor is needed. Can someone draw...

So I?ve been digging around and have come across some info on ground pins 18 and 19 in the ezk to advance the timing. I?m no master with electricity, so I?ve got a fairly simple question. To ?ground? these two pins together, do I just have to run a wire between both terminals, or do I run a...

So I?ve been doing research for a while now about water meth injection with the plans on getting it installed. I?ve had half a system installed on another project, and decided to swap it over to my 1990 760 turbo wagon. The half installation was my most experience with this kind of thing...

Hey all! So I recently picked up a 15g turbo from an 850 turbo, and am currently setting it up to install on my 1990 760. I?ve disassembled it, have a general idea on how I?m gonna set the wastegate up, and have it clocked in roughly the right orientation. My biggest hurdle is removing the...

So I?ve slowly but surely been quietly building up my 1990 765 turbo. In the process I managed to find a 95 850 turbo in a junkyard and snatched it up. My goal is/was to push the 15g for all it?s worth. I purchased a 9 blade turbine wheel from someone up in VA, and purchased a billet 6+6...

So I?ve got a 1990 760 turbo wagon with an aw71 transmission. I?m slowly doing upgrades here and there, things that can be carried over to a bigger turbo eventually. I?ve got a 15g sitting in my spare room waiting for a rebuild to be put on. Anyways, like any enthusiast would do, I?m wanting...

So I?ve been doing a fair amount of research on swapping a g80 into my 90 760 turbo wagon. The I?d sticker is ineligible on my car, but research and a one wheeled burnout tells me that I?ve got a 1031 axle. On my latest junkyard trip, I grabbed a g80 diff out of a 93 940 na. Now most of my...

Hey there everybody, hope alls well. I seem to have screwed something up this past weekend, and am turning here for some help. My 760 turbo with lh2.4 had an extremely noisy main pump, and extremely quiet pre pump. This past weekend I changed the fuel filter (definitely needed) and my in tank...

Hey all quick question. I?ve been searching for an answer, but definitely have found some conflicting info. My question is, does the oil dipstick tube for a 1990 760 turbo have a seal, or is it a metal on metal fitting? I?ve found some say that there is no seal, others say there is. I?ve found...
