I love my Volvo 740 GLE, Im happy that other people enjoy these awesome bricks. Love from Sweden!

Major downside to having the intake so low is risking a hydrolock when going through any water

Did you ever make the wiring video? I’m sure that is some useful information

I am also wanting to "update" the analog system as mine is 33 years old at this point. Its the fuel and tach I really want. Kid i bought it from had a cheap $20 all in one but only the speedo works 😂

I could use some of your experience on this model. I was given one that has working led headlight tail light. Signals were all removed previous. Have wiring diagram and basic tools but it’s driving me nuts. I got it running and added kill switch for fuel pump with help from RUclips. But I’m stumped

Hi ! Please tell me what absorber shock is this !?

very nice

thank you for the video from germany

When my vo's under load it bogs and stumbles but in neutral its revs and idles perfect. Could this be the cause?

so your converting it to lh 2.4? did you have to use a flywheel with a position sensor?

awesome vid man using it for my new ipd swaybars

Weather it’s wrenching on a b230, welding rotten floor pan, fixing the bikes or showing a clever way you figured something out I enjoy watching the videos. I have a few Volvos I keep around and I motorize bicycles, sharing your experiences with people n RUclips is a great idea it lets you know people are out there and they have a real interest in what’s going on.

I dream of doing something like this. I drive a manual and will be looking for another. Its hard to drive automatic anymore.

on a positive note, your confidence is on point. :D

If you do a left hand turn, the weight shifts to the (mostly) front and (some) rear right, not left. #badscience

Similarly I've swapped my 86' engine for a 91'. Just did my first clutch with the m46, and it was a pain, but glad I know how to do it. Maybe one day I'll get the balls to convert it to a turbo...Your engine looks real nice, renegade! Keep em' running Brother.

Love the diy.. but for the love of all things volvo please wear safety glasses when you cut metal!

I would have really liked to see you hook up the power to the fuse box and explanation of it. Can you suggest any video where you go into those details, it would really help me out down the road :) Great content by the way!

What did you end up using to fill in gap left from sissy bar?

ok. you ar e mostly correct. first simply remove the throttle body, simple. 3 13mm nuts. remove tps. clean body with tps removed. the solvent can wick through the shaft and destroy the tps.. ask me how i know. now set base throttle gap. 004? carbon paper is perfect. install,adjust tps. if issue persists, look at the iac valve. you should hear it moving with a stethoscope. sometimes a smack with a hammer and wd-40 will wake it up. 40 years on volvo. retired now. will take a red motor over white 100-1. enjoy your beauty. keep her up and pass it to your grandchildren. cheers.

do you really feel different at the corners now ...?

dont go through any standing water or floods i guess?

I was hesitant to get some LED’s for my 1993 240 sedan. The reasons were the fact that LED’s shine light all over the place instead of focusing it down on the road. They can be blinding when they are coming towards you because of that. Plus the fact that the companies who make them you’re like “WTF are they?? It ain’t like the ones you’re used to like GE, Wagner, Sylvania or Phillips. I found out about two companies called Nilight and Auxito who make LED bulbs that focus the light down on the road AND they’re a LOT brighter. I use the 9004 model Nilight bulbs for the headlights. Since Nilight doesn’t make H3 bulbs for the fog lights. I use Auxito bulbs. I also got a headlight wiring harness even before I got the LED’s that connect the headlights to the battery to reduce the voltage drop through the headlight switch. I was using some high powered halogens from PIAA when I got the wiring harness and it definitely made an improvement!

Just acquired exact bike. Can you help me with what you did on hand controls? Which ones are they and what wiring was needed. Tia Sincerely Noob intruder

Surprisingly, there are no good videos I can find showing how to remove the regulator on models with power windows to replace the motor, this was helpful enough that i think I can manage it now.

how do you keep your filter clean? do you oil it? if so how often?

The reason turn signals stick out is to make you more visible to the rest of the traffic. What you did is extremely stupid and dangerous. Cheers 🥂

Good job, I did the cheap upgrade for now until I get these for my 87 245. My OEM rear is a 15mm, I grabbed a OEM 19mm rear from a 92 sedan for $7 from the junk yard.

That was a really cool video. What did you do with your hot air tube hole on your air box? Since you put on the intake tube and cone filter and deleted the 1st muffler, what gas mileage increase have you noticed,, etc? Is there any downside to the mod you did?

this is a complete mockery of the legendary suzuki model!

They are timeless and elegant, I think most all Volvos have that simple yet sophisticated style.

Awesome seeing a black pipe for a change looks gothic lol 😂 like it

THESE ARE SUPER COOL/FANCY, GOOD JOB RENEGADE! Now I want some, Already took apart my car a million times for the stereo so should be fairly easy. Keep at it!

thank you that was very informative I can do that.

Happy thanksgiving, It's a pity that we don't have such a holiday in poland, the only one that has a similar meaning is Christmas Eve👍🏻👍🏻

Was that the long winded video I love Volvo 240 but I found this video slow and borring that is why I only watch half of it

What ended up doing on my 240 was deleted the airbox thermostat, and preheat nonsense. I then routed the preheat hose through a hole on the passenger side ( its the air intake for the turbo model) and connected it to the bottom of the airbox. Then i got rid of the old snorkel and made a piece to go out of the hole but with fewer bends. Along with the center muffler delete the car pulls a lot better. Great video as always

This is similar to the Rkelly intake for the v70r, im gonna have to try this on my 240

What perches did you use? I want adjustable levers as well but I need a brake master cylinder and help is appreciated!

Interesting how different people can be, when you said it’s looks straight out of the late 70s I’m thinking that’s exactly what I want lol

No jack stands? I have had a jack fail, highly recommend stands.

Unfortunately, I live in a "super-cold" area. So, I need -and maintain - my pre-heat hose. I need my splashguard intact, too. So, I guess I'm stuck with 7-second 0-40mph times. It may be slow, but it still beats walking! lol

I have everything installed and I get to sparks from the coil then nothing!! Any ideas???

It has been a damn nightmare for me!!!

I’ve got the same wheels on my Volvo except they are fully chrome

Cool job i ave been suffering with this issue for days can you send the scheme or upload it to build the holder (of speedometer)

How does this method hold up against rain water? Any leaks?

what are you going to do if its raining with that air filter?

Hey man nice work! Where did you get the headlight and taillights?

I completely get that state you're in, I have undergone many losses myself in recent years, (people/ nice things). I have made a credo to remember and live by: The Battle IS The Blessing. In life we all undergo many struggles, simply being here and able to fight, whether we win or lose-- the battle itself is the meaning and purpose. And when shit gets hopeless to an extreme, I dive my nose in to a good book to drown out my negativity. Stay up Renegade.
