    I had one I revived when station in Ludwigsburg Germany. It was in a Army POV Lot, fixed the exhaust manifold, plugs, fixed the Bosch fuel injection system, ran it for 3 years. Super Family Sedan.

    240s 700s 900s can be very reliable

      I don't agree with you they are not under appreciated here in Europe and trying to buy an old 200 Series Volvo is quite expensive some trading for thousand in far worse condition than this, Hipsters have made them very expensive to buy now because there is a trend for 70s and 80s Swedish cars

      @@Azureecosse And here in Sweden at least the prices have always been a bit steep for 240s, 740s and 940s. Lots of them used in rallys too here so not underappreciated. And vehicle inclined younger people want them here because they're RWD so for the winters the prices usually go up even more here. Finding a good example of any 240, 740 or 940 is at least 4-6000 USD here.

    VOLVO лучший автомобиль! Надежность, простота, безопасность, качество! Ездил на такой как на видео, только зеленого цвета. Двигатель был B21 на механическом инжекторе k-jetronic, МКПП с овердрайвом, включался с кнопки. Песня а не машина! Теплая, уютная, какая-то ламповая. Жаль что была не моя... первой моей VOLVO была 440, мне очень нравилась. 1.7 инжектор, 107 л.с. мкпп, пушка! Потом были 740, 850... какие были тачки! Ну и VOLVO- это любовь на всю жизнь. Сейчас эксплуатирую XC90!❤❤❤👍

    Looks like my first Volvo. My oval originally came from California. Still had a California license plate. At first the ignition switch was very sticky. It was a donation car. While getting out of work from the car. I saw a family unicorn pull off and look at my car. I figured it was the man's family

    i got a question, u started it with 15y old gas? didnt clean the tank or something

    • @DaysofCars
      @DaysofCars  4 місяці тому +4

      I knew it was as good as empty by looking at the gauge and bounce the car by the towing hitch, and tested if it was willing to ignite by priming the carburator with new high 98 octane fuel. It was willing to run, so i filled the tank with a full gas can with that same type 98 octane fuel. The tank sending unit got a screen and there is a finer filter near the or inside carburators that will clog up usually before you got some start/run issues and need to remove the tank for cleaning. The only thing that made the engine not run 100% in this video especially when it was cold, was a EGR pipe with pit rusted holes. I have removed a gas tank on another 240 few years ago due to welding, and that tank was like new inside, but for the long trips a tank cleaning will give a piece of mind i guess. Thank you for question and watching

      Have no idea. Have never seen it on other volvo 240`s and i see no reason to install it for when you use the key, the trunk pops up and you can open and close it by grabbing that moulding at that edge... a mystery handle.. Maybe for people on skis or rollerskates..
