    Sticky Gas Pedal & High Idle After Replacing Engine mounts

    By Wrong_Crew_4557

    I just replaced my engine mounts in my 71' 144s and I messed up and didn't think to disconnect the linkage or the choke cable before raising the engine...I now have issues with high idle after I push the gas pedal after warming up the engine. If I pull back on the pedal or push down on the tab connected to the spring the idle goes back down. Any suggestions? I tried adjusting the idle screws but it only helped a little. it likes to sit at 2k RPM

    Bad idea...?

    By Chilm

    I’m wondering whether machining a longitudinal groove into the camshaft bearing surface would be a bad idea, with the aim of improving oil flow and lubrication. Has anyone tried this before, or is there a reason why it shouldn’t be done?

    Timing help! Unmarked cam sprockets?? 94 960 with a crank/no start condition.

    By frankiefurter

    It’s a 1994 960, 2.9L B6304F with Motronic 1.8. First time taking off my timing cover, but someone’s definitely been in here before. Fairly certain these are aftermarket cam sprockets. There are these two “M” marks, and some hand-scribed/painted marks as well, but those don’t line up at all with the cover. If i get one in position according to the handmade marks, the other will be off by like 40 degrees. But the M’s are angled correctly to the marks on the cover!? Surely these are not the... Read more

    Correct new CV joint for 960 propshaft?

    By petiww

    As title says. I want to test a rear section of a 960 CV propshaft on my liveaxle 940. Sadly the CV on the one i acquired has a big crack on the ball cage, and lots of play. I see that on skandix it is NLA: https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-par...parts/joint-propeller-shaft-rear-kit/1028111/ And for our luck, this volvo part number is not really useful anywhere. I found this: https://www.driveshaftparts.com/CVJ052 It has the correct... Read more

    My (increasingly long) 945 restoration thread

    By Led

    Just purchased a 1994 945 Turbo, two owner, 104,000 miles. It’s not perfect but the paint is pretty good, mechanicals seem good and the interior is decent. Poor thing sat beside the current owners house for 7 years. It’s always been a local car and was owned by a lawyer that had it dealer maintained. Fuel pumps are dead so that’s first. I swapped in the relay from my sedan and no joy. Several pieces of trim are loose and need new fasteners. It will also need head lights and corner... Read more

    1993 240 NA Coolant Bypass O-Ring

    By Elliotb520

    I?ve just recently purchased a 93 240, and it?s been great besides the fact that I can?t get it to stop leaking coolant. It first sprung a leak from the coolant bypass line that goes from the water pump to the heater core and bolts up to the exhaust side of the block. I cut out the leaky section and replaced it with a rubber hose temporarily until the new part came in. That was holding fine, however it started to leak from where the line met the water pump, but by that time the new lime had... Read more

    Oil pressure

    By _blockr4

    Good evening everyone, after breaking my turbo, I installed an oil pressure mano to see if I had a lack of pressure. Cold and slow motion, I have between 2.5 and 3 bars. On the other hand, at hot, the pressure is about 1b and it does not climb above 2 bar when I accelerate. Any idea of the problem? HS oil pump? Bad oil? This is a Volvo 745 of 85 (B200ET), the oil currently in it is of the 10W40.
