I've recently experimented with cold air induction. I'm running a conical filter inside the engine compartment. I intend to have it situated right behind the...
Look at the catco cats. with the SS guts. Expensive but flow really really well. Impressive gains on turbo cars. May be overkill on an NA. They go for around...
if you think your fuel consumption got bad, wait till you open out the exhaust too much. your fuel consumption may be due to the fact that the temp sensor you ...
I don't think I've moved the temp sensor, unless it's part of the Air Filter Box?!?!? I've just replaced the box with a conical "Pod Filter" at this point. The...
Hi, As far as i am aware, all volvo's have had a catch can for the oil fumes in the crankcase ventilation since the earlt 70's (the volvo handbooks show this...
its my understanding that the crankcase ventilation must be routed into the intake as part of the emission control system. If you have an obvious catch tank...
Hi Guy's, Thanks for all that. You twigged my mind to something I did the other day. I may have a baring. I degreased the engine bay and hosed it down. I then...
Hi Again. So I could re-route into the manifold itself. I, still reckon it clogs things up, otherwise the throttle plate wouldn't get anywhere near as ...
Hi Your cold air induction / fuel consumption Q. seems to have been answered (erratic sensor). Mentioned is previous throttle body cleans, this might point to...
photos too if you can. the 240 mod looked rather neat once painted. although your later pix of filter box mods are not clear, or possibly a touch scary 8-)...
I've loaded new pics of what I did today. Completely re did the whole intake again. Cleaned out the whole intake system, throttle body, etc. Cleaned the sooty...

Hey version 2 looks rather neat. a couple of suggestions though 1)replace the self tapping screws holding that square section ally bar with bolts, washers and...
Thanks for that. Next size tube and bolts nylocks would complete the project nicely! The first piece of tube came from a 244DL which I bought for parts. I also...
Would anybody have a late 240 5 speed box available for sale, as I've had enough of the factory overdrive on my daily driver leaking ATF everywhere...and I...
Not me either. Or my young bloke. No way I'm going to tell him about it. He'll go looking, with the idea of trying to buy it. Three GT's in one family would be...
I just boughtand installed a new temperature sender ($95 from Volvo), because my gauge began behaving erraticly. I did the resistance test and found that the...
I don't know if this is a wives tale or not but I had heard that some cars with MAF meters don't like pod filters, something to do with air turbulence. I seem...
--A similar thing happened to me and it turned out that the vac line to the charcoal cannister was hard and with all my pushing and moving things about i...
I did remove the screens. You reckon thats a bad thing! Some say yes, some say not. If the system is well sealed and no foreign matter can get in, iot should...
if you have a list of error codes put em up and we'll try to decipher em for you. also try to find what ECU type your car has. Motronic, Jetronic 2.4, 4,3 etc...
