My 93 245 has been running the lambda codes 231 and 221 for lean/rich at part load, and I was advised to replace the MAF (Delphi) and check for vacuum leaks, both of which I have done and upon clearing the codes and turning the car back on, the codes returned. The car struggled on power at cold starts but drives normal once it is warmed up. Any advice on what I should look for next to try to get these codes cleared?

It pairs with a drive-by-wire Nexus ECU, and it is on display at our stand at the SEMA Show 2026 (Booth #23661) What is a Ti8HP? The Ti8HP is not a transmission controller.

I been talking to a local Amazon owner (Jay) for a while now and he mentioned a few times over the years that his mom has a wagon that needs some work. She bought it back in 1993 and stopped driving it around 2010 after it developed some issues. He parked it inside after draining all the coolant and gas out of it back then. I didnt think much of it until my son mentioned he wanted a car... This weekend we finally had time to go and get it, he just turned 16. Car lived most of it's life... Read more

1983 242 b23f lh2.1 w/ Chrysler ignition. Can someone tell me what this is? I cannot find a definitive answer. It definitely seems factory, but is capped. Best guess so far has been an unused over pressure or charge air overpressure switch as if my car was to be turbo’d but wasn’t. Could also be possible related to ignition or egr?

i recently bought a 1994 volvo 960 3.0 700 bucks that had been left in a field for around 5 years and immediately replaced the timing belt and wp as you do with an early whiteblock, but i notice the timing gears seem to be axially misaligned where the passenger side sits ahead of the belt and the driver side allmost flush. Any clue why and what should i do? Also i replaced my steering rack it was fine before but it seems to keep getting air in the system after rotating a turn and a half... Read more

Hello. I’m dealing with rattling and whining on a D-type M4 in 3rd gear all other gears are good. It shifts fine. Emptied out oil and found metal filings on plug magnet. It came out of a P1800 probably mid ‘60s, unknown mileage. What typically is the cause of this? I installed it on my ‘67 122s wagon with the drive shaft shortened and balanced.

Hi guys, first post here. I have a 1991 240 B230F+T, I have some idle issues every now and then and a stalling after coasting down the highway that I can replicate pretty much 100% of the time. It doesn’t happen when coasting from slower speeds. Only the highway speeds and it happens when I come home and go to the gym. When I come to a stop it will live for like half a second and then just die. It then will not turn on for like 5-10 minutes but after it feels like it, it will just start... Read more

Looking for a source for a adaptor plate and related parts to allow me to mount a T5 Transmission behind my 1966 Amazon B18 Engine. I had been dealing with John Parker at VPD, but his web site is now off line and he no longer answers his phone. I have searched the forums and I do see a couple of threads on the subject but they are all 5 or more years old.

I bought this car a month ago. I've got a Volvo 850 already but I have always wanted an RWD and the chance popped up to own a 740 wagon in an extremely cool color (in my opinion!) Herein follows a photo dump and walkthrough of the car. Most obvious issue Fortunately this rubber list can be bought new! Skandix sells it and even has instructions... Read more

Are there any of the old guys still on this board? I don't recognize these new handles. Just trying to catch up.

I found the source of the horrific rattle on my 1994 940T wagon, the resonator is totally fried. https://imgur.com/a/cA0JXBc For the amount of work to get it off there I'm considering doing a complete exhaust replacement. Does anyone make/sell a decent off the shelf exhaust system in the U.S.? My initial searches haven't been too fruitful. There are some nice looking options coming out of Europe but the international shipping is a real downer. Car is bone stock, typical maintenance items handled and... Read more

Does anyone make a “bolt on” exhaust from the na header pipe back that’s 2.5”? May add a turbo later so if there’s already a 2.5” exhaust there it’s something I don’t have to go back and add later.

Picked up this 1982 244 few years ago for a cheap. I saw it parked in Chico, left a note and got a call the next day, not really wanting another car. Woman said it had a charging issue, new alternator and battery just replaced. She was asking $800 but I talked her down to $550, she even got is Smoged (after I told her not to) and we drove it home. There I parked it with the intention of getting to it someday. 130k automatic Volvo's B21 high MPG car repainted but someone did a pretty good... Read more

FWIW, below pic shows tools required. For a AW70L, I had to use the box-end side of the wrench on front bolt, and the crow's foot on rear bolt. I first cleaned all sides of solenoid area before removing it. I have shop-air, so I could blast away with air. Ramps were used on front end of vehicle. Small amounts of tranny oil will leak, so have a catch pan. Front bolt was a pill, so I used two wrenches...with box end on bolt, and my finger over the box end, I applied extra torque. via...

All, Circa 2001 I pulled ‘94 940T LH and EZK ECUs. 25 years later I decided I should finish my ‘75 B230ft resto before I die or TB migrates to the next platform. I started on gnttype.org so I don’t have many years left. So, any commercial companies or folks that could verify my ECUs known working? -pg240

Hello, I have a 1995 850 with SC-811 radio which needs a security code. Is there someone here who is able to help? Many thanks.

Is there a definitive thread that talks about how to actually fix the glove box? Mine, like all the other ones, has started to sag and comes unlatched anytime you hit a bump in the road.

Hi all, I purchased a non-running ‘79 262c recently. Previous owner purchased it a couple years prior, in the same state. The previous, previous owner (PPO?) swapped the original motor out for an LH2.2 B230f and never got it running. Here’s where the plot thickens. There’s an EZK117 screwed to the inside firewall near the engine computer, and a Chrysler system by the passenger headlight. The EZK seems to have at least one wire running to the power stage, and there’s at least one wire... Read more
