Hey man, b200e here. I've gone through an entire injection overhaul after almost 10 years that my dad put the car to sleep. From rear to front, I cleaned the tank, changed both fuel pumps, new fuel filter, new fuel pressure regulator, new injectors, WUR rebuilt (cold and warm pressures ok), head skimmed and new valves, new plugs, new cap and rotor. After all that done the car still runs kinda shaky. I messed a bit with the ignition advance and found that the car was running 20° idle. I've tried to get it to factory specs close to 10° at 750rpm and I still had a shaky idle, it defintely improved but not as smooth as I've seen in other videos. Recently I installed a wideband and adjusted the mixture close to 1%/14.1 and now it's running at 14.4-14.6 at idle and still not smooth. I will check the valve clearances as last resort. Car is running fine nonetheless. I've been working on this car since 2020 and I'm finally seen some results and it's road worthy again

Love ❤️ this car but in Lebanon it's finishing what can I do

Yeah I'm working on mine got it from eBay too open to look as good as yours

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? Having similar issues with my 740

Is it going to be out and about this summer?

How much would it ruin your day to ask what paint you used on the trim? The stuff just below the window scrapers! That turned out great!!! The whole thing really Been debating on grabbing an eraser wheel to my black trim and then repainting it but not a clue what I’d use

freaking photo slide show. can’t be bothered to waste 16 minutes watching it.

where can I purchase one?

Здравствуйте размер дисков и резины можете написать пожалуйста

Amazing work. Would you be interested in doing the same on my 1993 Torslanda??

How did you fix it? Where is radio located?

Had you any bother getting the wheels to fit/ not rub?

did you make that roof rack yourself? it looks amazing

Great work ,it was a decent example but you've made it outstanding.I don't think mine will be that good but now I want to try, once I've fixed all the little gremlins.

This video reminded me of the time I laid an abo egg, up Tuncurry way.

Interested in how this works out - same issue on the 240 (my daughter) has inherited from her granddad. Done pretty much the same as you have but tried the spray can vacuum leak trick but no change (spray brake cleaner sparingly around manifold and around pipe work but no change in running). Its been 6months since the last comment so hoping you have made some progress as we have only just started this week (May 2023)

Could you add links to where you bought some of the parts please? - looking to restore my (now) late father in-laws 240GLT "F" reg and bushes and brakes being high on our list - along with water pump, radiator and thermostat .... then there is anything else we find on the way

Nice 👌 do you happen to have a link or a exact model of the ones you used? Thanks in advance

Need to pop round and see the beast. Cheers, Kevin.

Lep vollvo,👍

What is the offset on those wheels? And do you use spacers?

Did you ever get these finished, sure I saw some on the bay , but not for a while of looking. Cheers john

Vids

Your

Great keeping these amazing vehicles alive. I've got a 960 2.5 estate that I've owned from new. Now 27 years old, taking longer to get through the MOT each year, but that's because I can't get original parts now.

Outstanding job...welldone!!😀

What a transformation with minor changes

You cannot beat having a clean Volvo... awesome vehicles.. no Matter what the haters say.

Nice work. What did cost the project on parts. About 10k??

Wow that one was in really good shape too!

I like all volvo cars

Nice looking Volvo !

Wow, what a beautiful car

Awesome ride!

Great work whe I first started work in 1987 in a factory thses cars would come up on notice board for workers to buy at a discount .they were our company x sales rep cars a few bought them I considered it but never did wasn't a teenager car .but looking back they are icons an amazing design yours looks fantastic

Nice job👍👍👍. Did you find out what caused the original engine to die? I'm gonna have a look at a similar car next weekend, and I dont know much about them. I would be really grateful for any heads up... Jan

Wonderful video, enjoyed watching it and see that you spent a mini fortune to transform the car for the better. Hope you finally get around to sorting out that rust properly.

Thanks for sharing.

nice video and lovely car

Bravo !

Love your vid mate… I done the gearbox on mine with a washer and now I have it running on a brushless motor and 2s lipo and hitting mid 20’s… the 18t pinion gear I put in was a fun experiment as well 🫣 lol

Absolutely love your Volvo 🥰 what a beauty 😍

Harmonic balancer perhaps?

Rust repair by epoxy... Buahahhaha Restoration tiaaaaa , shitty restoration for lamers...

I had to watch this with the volume muted but the restoration was outstanding!

Man, that's beautiful and an inspiration. I was on the fence between a 240 and a Mercedes W123, but I think you just made my mind up.

where did you get the springs? I have a 88 wagon that needs new ones.

Brilliant! I have a 240 Super Polar myself. All you need now is the B204FT engine and that thing goes like a stabbed rat. 💨

Great job! thanks for keeping this 240 on the road! I love the clear indicators on your car

I admire your dedication, I wish I had the energy these days! Great job, lovely car.
