Vacuum Diagram

Post by Steven242 »

Could someone help me out and tell me where I could find a Vacuum Diagram to a 1978 242DL with the B21F with an Auto.
I believe the fuel injection I have is the K-JetTronic. It used to have a Frequency Valve, but no one made any Fuel Distributors with the Frequency Valve hole in place, so The volvo mechanic said I either wait six months to have the current one in the car shipped to cali and rebuilt and shipped back, or order the K-jet injection system from the previous year 242 without the O2 sensor.

Anyways, I think I got the vacuum hoses hooked up right, but I'm not entirely sure because I have no diagram.

Thanks,
Steven

PS, there are two vacuum ports on the vacuum advance for the distributor.

Can't tell, man I wish there was just a few pictures or even a vid of a walk thru vacuum hose connections, I understand pics better than shop drawings. Anyways, I'll try to make it out, thanks. Any others you can come acrossed?

I'll keep an eye out- that was from a google search. Once billofdurham is back (he's 5 hours ahead in England), he may have something for you.

Well it was more than a few hours but, hopefully, better late than never.

I can't think of anywhere that you would get pictures but this link will take you to several drawings of different parts of the vac system.
