Post by Jeff Schubert »

Ive been searching various forums in attempts to repair my 1989 740gl. It seems this site has a wealth of information, soo...here i am

A little background. Ive owed the 740 for about a year. Like older cars, of course, it has issues.

The speedometer/odometer quit around 229,000 miles. That was my first repair, and was very simple. The connector at the differential was missing, so I made my own.

My recent...issues have not been as easy, but ill start a different post for that. Ill leave this one as just an introduction.

I live somewhat near Madison, Wisconsin. The city is small enough that I am quite convinced I am the -only- person in town that owns and drives an 89 Volvo wagon. That's both good...and bad. They always know its ME!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting involved here, so...again..here I am. :D


Just a heads up, my recent problem (and next post) is regarding my fuel pump relay. Imagine that? Ive searched, but seek more information....thanks in advance!
