    U r talking about 3 different types of TD04HL turbine housings, not turbine wheels. TD04HL turbine wheels r always the same diameter, inducer/exducer 52/45.6mm. HL designates size of the turbine wheel and proper housing. TD04HL-nn designates size (13-20) of the compressor housing and comp.wheel / impeller. Last marking, in this case T, designates the profile of the compressor wheel / impeller. T is the most "aggressive" profile. #7 housing (7cm2) has A/R = 0.49.

      Yes, my understanding is that the main difference between the LPT and HPT is the wastegate spring tension. A manual boost controller should work fine to raise the boost on an LPT car. I am located in America, and they never sold the LPT cars here, so I am speculating.

    Where should I start? I just found a 1989 740 NA wagon It is clean and in good shape cosmetically. It cranks very strong but will not run. It has been sitting for 3-4 years I am told. I put in fresh gas. I tried giving it some starter fluid through in intake and it will start for a moment. I can hear the fuel pump when I turn the key. The fuel pump and filter under the car look clean and somewhat new. Where should I start?

    • @Vehicularious
      @Vehicularious Месяц назад

      Generally speaking, I would recommend confirming whether you have both fuel and spark. An easy way to confirm fuel is if you smell fuel in the air after you crank the engine a few times (typically much of that smell is unburnt fuel in the exhaust). There are obviously more detailed ways to do this, which are found by various mechanics on RUclips. There are a few ways to try and confirm spark. One is to ground out the coil wire in the engine bay, another is to pull one spark plug and attach it to the corresponding plug wire, and just look for spark when cranking the engine. I think that if you search online, specifically for the 240/740/940 cars, you may find additional guides for how to troubleshoot a no-start condition. Good luck!!

    We had one of the last 940 2,3L turbo Vagons out of Volvo assembly line. I was just a little kid back then, now im 38 years old. It went to the most famous Volvo tuning shop in Finland called Autokorjaamo Mini. Looked totally normal from outside. Dark blue and 3 spoke 15`` Fondmetal rims. We had it for years and it never broke down. They had to turn it down a lot. First drive clutch was slipping a lot and cardan shaft was shaking really badly. They prolly put forged internals in to engine. External waste gate with screamer pipe was the only hint people could hear when it was on road. Local Bmw 325 and Mercedes boys got prolly very upset because that car. Good days back then. After nineteens everything went to shit in my opinion.

If our 240sx had come with an SR20DET, like similar models received in Japan, I think it would have been an awesome spiritual successor to the 240Z! The main drawback to the 240sx is that it wasn’t a flagship car for Nissan, but you can see from the desirability 30 years later that it was arguably a better enthusiast car than the Z31 300ZX.
