    My newest acquisition, a 78 model 244 with b21 engine and k-jet injection has a oil leak. I originally thought the leak was from the front crank seal, but that is not it. It appears that the oil is coming from behind the alternator mounting bracket. I know that the lower alternator hole is...

    76 model m46 4speed w/od transmission marriage to 86 model b230 engine?

    I've got a nice 76 model 242 body with a good m46 4speed w/od. I've given it to my grandson and hope to help him somehow install a good 86 model b230 engine that I also have. The original b21 engine from the 242 is junk because my daughter drove it 8 miles without any coolant and melted...

    94 Model 940 B230 n/a Heater Hoses

    I just learned how big a pain in the a** it is to change the Heater Hoses on my 94 Volvo 940 B230 N/A. I thought I was going to have to remove the Intake manifold. Not only that, but there are no new hoses in stock at any local auto parts stores. The return hose from the head to the heater...

    A few days ago, I noticed that the horn had quit working on my 92 Volvo 240. The next day I noticed that the headlights wouldn't flash on when I pulled the lever handle. I found this out when I was trying to warn a oncoming driver about a accident ahead. It was then I noticed that the...

    I posted on this problem on my new to me 92 Model 240 about 10 months ago. Erratic central locking system and current trickle on fuse #8 resulting in dead battery overnight. At the time, I received some very good advice from "cleanflametrap" and finally got tired enough at not having central...

    Intank Fuel Pump 940 verses 240

    I recently replaced the in-tank fuel pump on my 92 model 240 B230 LH 2.4. It had been so long since I replaced one that I had forgotten just how easy a job it is compared to the 940 series. I replaced the in-tank pump on my wife's 94 model 940 B230 LH 3.1 a couple of years ago, and it left bad...

    94 model 940 NA LH2.4 rough idle and acceleration

    It's December again, and sure enough, problems have arrived with my 940. Car idles rough, as though it has a random miss on 1 cylinder. With the car in gear, the body will shake, and upon acceleration, the engine will miss badly until it reaches about 1500 rpm, then it will smooth out, and...

    Chasing wiring Gremlins in "Jasmine" my 92 model 240

    Well, I finally had to give my 92 model 240 a name. After driving these 240's for a long time, I came to a conclusion a long time ago that these cars have a personality....sometimes bad....sometimes good. I sold my 88 model 240 "Jethrine" to my sister in law a couple of years ago. It had a...
