Re: Random Electrical issues in my 240

I had a similar issue with my electrical i.e. horn, front windshield wipers not working along with turn signals. I replaced all the old fuses with new ones. Pay special attention while removing & installing the fuses... the fuses should insert into their sockets firmly with resistance. I had several ...

Re: Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw (PROBLEM SOLVED)

Installed the pipe with the shrink wrap still installed... just in case I had to return the pipe. The following items were taken off the engine in order to install the pipe:

Oil drain pipe coming from the bottom of the turbo unit, going into the block.
Oil line going from the engine block, to the ...

Finally Discovered Where Part Goes :-)

The mystery part is made of aluminum and looks just like a Australian boomerang. Only one bracket exists and it's on the passenger side. What threw me off is that I couldn't reference the other (drivers side) light housing. The bracket goes on the bottom of the housing unit. Inclosed is a picture of ...

Mistery Part After Working on Front Headlight

Removed the passengers side front headlight in order to sand the now "Yellow" lens. I removed the lens cover by inserting a putty knife under the seam and working it around the cover. Not to difficult as the adhesive has reverted back to powder.

When I picked up the housing bracket in preparation ...

Re: Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw

Thanks for the reply "93Regina"... yes your correct the header pipe slides out of the exhaust manifold. 4 bolts along with an o-ring secure the header/manifold toegather.

My game plan is to remove: Remove 4 bolts holding the header pipe to the exhaust manifold... remove the Oxygen sensor, along ...

Re: Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw

Does anyone know if it's possible just to remove the header pipe? I checked the space between the firewall & the block with the new coolant pipe and it looks good. I'm confident their will be enough room to install the pipe, especially with all the parts currently removed from the car.

Welcome ...

Re: Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw

Per my first post... I have removed all my cooling hoses. My neighbor stopped by and said I should be able to remove the header along with oxygen sensor from the exhaust manifold. I'm not sure how to remove the header from the manifold, however there defiantly would be more than enough room.

I'm ...

Re: Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw

Thank you for both replies... I'm pondering bending the 90 degree angel in the pipe to about 70. I should then be able to guide coolant pipe between the exhaust header pipe and firewall. I would be bending the pipe by heating with a torch (MAPP) gas. I'm worried about caching the engine on fire ...

Cut "Coolant Pipe" into 5 Pieces with Hacksaw

I removed the "Red Steel Coolant Pipe" without any problems from my 92 Volvo Turbo wagon (easy part). Now here comes the (difficult part) I have looked throughout the forum without any luck... I have a suspicion the installation will not be easy.


Parts removed so far:

-- Removed all rubber hoses ...

Re: Front wipers not working properly "FIXED"

Removed all the fuses and cleaned the contacts... used my handy speed tool. QA fuses and Re-install... boomb! front wipers now work.
