I have an OEM Volvo clutch disc - Part No 1209715 and an OEM Volvo pressure plate (Sachs)- Part No 1209874 for sale. They list for $293 and $485 respectively. Make me a reasonable offer.

Thanks. See -you guys DO know everything! Well, enough to make me happy. BTW - as an interim "fix" I took some #12 copper 110v electrical wire, connected it to the solenoid and bent it so it touched the mystical bump on the starter. It's been working for 4 days now. I'll fix it for real to...

I have a 90 Volvo 240 and the braided starter/solenoid ground wire disintegrated after only 308,000 miles. I have the small profile starter and the braided ground wire turned to dust. It was only about 2-3 inches long from a connector on the solenoid to what appears to have been some sort of solder ...

Super news. I don't need the retrofit kit - the ac didn't go - it was a broken wire. Whew! I dodged a big one. It may happen one day, but I'll deal with it then. Thanks. for your interest and help.

How do we donate?

Thanks. Have you - or anyone - successfully converted using just the O rings? I'd do the O rings but my mechanic said the only way to do the conversion is to use the kit.

Hot and humid and the old AC quit. It's the original R-12 system and it was suggested I convert it rather than repair it. Anyone know where I can get a 9134808 retrofit kit?

As a matter of fact I did have a new windshield installed. I can't say I noticed the squeak before the replacement because I had the windshield replaced shortly after I bought the car. And the plastic piece is broken in 3 places. Is it more likely the plastic piece is creating the squeak, than the b...

Does anyone have an idea of how long it would take to remove the dashboard? I'm sure I saw a posting about making new brackets for the dash, but couldn't find it again. And removing the airbag - isn't that a serious undertaking. That's what scares me the most. I'm half curious and half serious about...

Thanks to both of you for the instructions. I must say that after reading them I'm more than a little intimidated. I can't believe the steering wheel and airbag have to be removed. If it weren't for that, I'd jump right in. I can see why you'd wait to do this and I think I'm in no hurry to start. If...
