i am looking into building a sailboat in my woodworking class at school and i have a quick question. how much is my 1991 non-turbo volvo 740 capable of towing? could it handle a 1200 pound boat? or should i opt for the much smaller (less fun) 400 pound boat? http://www.ipdusa.com/ProductsCat.aspx?Ca...

i finally had the time to investigate the problem today with the aide of my neighbor that's a mechanic. it's the heater hose so i just have to fix that and i should be golden

ok so i have a '91 740 8 valve n/a. it was leaking coolant from the upper EGR pipe but i replaced that and then when i tested it out i found that it is also leaking quite vigorously from somewhere under the intake manifold. are there any ideas to what it may be? it only leaks when the car is running...

what are some good volvo mechanics around chapel hill, north carolina? i need someone to look at my exhaust and transmission on my 740. i don't mind alittle drive if they're good and worth it.

Dude just pay the extra $4.00 for the premium. It's not much more and it's better for the car...just get the good stuff.

i need to replace the thermostat in my 740. i was wondering which one i need (there are different temperatures). i have a 1991, non-turbo, automatic, 8-valve, 740.
thanks

i have a 1991 740. the glove box lock is broken but i cannot find a replacement lock kit for it. the only locks i can find are for 240's and 260's. would either of these fit in my car? if not does anyone know where i can purchase a glove box lock for my 740 online?
thanks
