Done it...did it...not doing it again...great end result, but you are probably only so so with your results....All this in a cramped space with light issues, and filmed it....you deserve an award.
What an lovely day, first my 740 died on the petrol station, i go get new fuelpump and filter, change it on the petrol station parking area and come home to see Involvo"d to upload new video. Great job man!
That's awesome. The moment the first cylinder fires and then it runs at idle without any other help is awesome. Makes you want to sit and just listen to it as a reward for all the work.
Good job! As an aside, I did PCV jobs on 3 or 4 Volvo's, all white blocks. I replaced the PCV box on the first job, because the manual says so. I opened that old box, dirty yet certainly not clogged. The other times I only replaced the tubes and the PCV's worked fine. Not so much about saving money, I hate to throw away stuff that is still usable...
I know what you mean, I'm keeping all the old boxes and will clean them out and save them for the future, they will probably start to get expensive before long too 🙄
Took a water pump off a 1973 Chevy Nova (my first car) and proceeded to put a hole in the rad with the fan studs on the water pump. Not a good day for me. Great video, great work
I think so too. Not just petrol powered but rear wheel drive, turbo charged and absolutely iconic? It's only because they last so long that they aren't already mega money, but as we know know it's finally coming. I hope to keep these cars forever. Thanks! 👍
Done a good job fella, yes I struggled with the damn bolts on one of my 740 bays! Shiny new car parts are far better than Christmas presents but that is only surpassed by car parts FOR Christmas 🤣 great video
Great work to replace all those other parts while you have the cylinder head (oil trap, flame trap holder, water pump, heater hoses). When doing a head gasket, I always drain both the oil and the coolant. This makes it easier to clean out the threads on the block before installing the new head bolts. I also soak the head bolts in oil overnight, to make sure the threads are very well-coated.
What a satisfying end! Seeing all these clean and new parts installed is just like Christmas, exactly like you said! She sounds like she is running excellent! Even though she's a noisy old girl. Haha. Congrats! Another great video. Thanks for taking us alone for the adventure!
Great work mate!👍I just watched your last two videos and everything is looking good. Just be sure after a few hundred miles of driving to loosen the tensioner nut and then retighten it. Doing so will take up any stretch that develops in the timing belt. Also, thanks for the shout out I really appreciate it. I'll be doing a head gasket before years end as well but on something much more complicated. My Saab 9⁵ Aero is the lucky culprit. Not so lucky for me though. It's a rather invasive job and can take quite awhile. Wish me luck 😆👍 If Sylvia is still feeling slow I bet those intercooler hoses are leaking boost. I have the do88 silicone hoses on my 745t. Very nice quality hoses. Keep up the content. I have 6 videos I need to edit. Just been busy with life. ✌😎
Cheers! I was checking the car this morning after driving just 10km since doing the belt and it felt a little loose, loosened and retightened the tensioner and it stayed fine after that, even after another 10km. And thanks, I'd really like some nice hoses for the engine bay. Looking forward to those videos, do love a Saab!
Awesome! That's an expected ending! Great job showing how it's done. It's a piece of cake the way you presented it 😅 Ha! the last sentence 🤣. Looks like you had some expetations 🤣
I love Redblocks. They indeed hold a lot of coolant inside the block itself, mainly due to it being of cast iron. I remember going to work for a night shift on a cool spring evening, drove for about an hour. When I came back to the car in the morning I showed the engine to a colleague of mine who was interested and lo and behold, the engine block was still somewhat warm (not hot obviously) after 8 hours or so.
Great job and video. One thing I learned that may come in handy for you is to put a line across all layers of your crankshaft pulley (either w/ paint marker, nail polish, etc). Sometimes when it separates it won't be totally drastic. I noticed that the painted on marks had shifted ever so slightly on my 92 245 once when under the car, knew it was time to change. Anyway, keep up the good work.
I got the crank, cam and oil pump bolt off by just putting the car in 4th and unscrewing them before taking the timing belt off (Just loosening of course). No need for a special tool 🤭 Congrats on it working 👍
For the crankshaft pulley, if the car has a manual (M45/M47) you can put it in 4th gear if you don't have the holder tool. It might sound sketchy but 4th gear is the "direct" gear for these, you essentially lock the crankshaft to the rear wheels (which you'll block, chock and put the handbrake on).
You might also want to check the clearance between the valve shims and the camshaft. They don't automatically adjust, so you'll have to check (and if required, adjust) them manually every 20k or so. This might be the cause for the ticking.
Sounds great! Like redblocks do 🙂 When cleaning threads I sometimes use an old bolt with a longitudinal groove cut in it, a tip I read from some repair manual - works great. I also forgot to put back the lifting brackets when I took the head off from my 740... And again when I took off the inlet manifold and thermostat housing from my other 740 😆
Going to be doing this in a month or so on our -90 740 GLT. Along with a bunch of other stuff. Will be interesting to see what I'll find since the entire engine is, internally, untouched since it was bought. It has gone well over 310000 miles and we're planning on selling it but before we do we have to do a bit of maintenance so it can get a passed road inspection. Funny thing is though that when we started it two days ago after having been still for 2 years, it started on the first crank as if it was nothing!
Great job, Sledge. Don't be too hard on yourself, your doing great! I'm sure you will be able to find the cause of the lack of power, maybe check the turbo and all hosery around it.
@@Involvod I had an Alfa turbo diesel once and the turbo hose looked fine when the engine was idling (or off) but when you pressed the accelerator it expanded a lot because it lost its strength. Also the bearings of the turbo can be worn which will give less boost.
@@Involvod I doubt it. If anything, slightly higher compression would result in a slightly faster car. The ECU and EZK in these cars are fairly simple and does not see a boost signal. For the air flow, they only monitor the air going into the turbo, after it passes the MAF (Air Mass Meter). It doesn't measure it after the air has been compressed.
Since when did 940T's get the number 1 7/9 series interior? Love the leather with the salt and pepper cloth inlays! Only seen it here in Australia on the 86-88 cars.
Nice work man! That knock sound is "piston slap" it"s quite common in these early 90"s turbo motors. Pistons wear and start to make that noise. Nothing to be too worried. I have seen examples driven more than 500k km with the piston slap noise and they run well without any issues.
Thanks! I have quite bad piston slap on the 240 but it sounds totally different to this, I wonder if it can slap in a different way, I thought that this noise was valve train noise, but considering the clearances were all well within spec it can't be 🤔
@@Involvod In my opinion if it would be valvetrain noise it would be more tick tick kind of noise 🤔 By listening the video yours sound exactly same as my old 940 turbo and it had some slack in pistons to cylinder, causing the slap noise. Does yours sound louder when engine is cold?
@@eebens4439 no it's pretty much the same on this one. But on the 240 it's definitely worse when cold, still does it a bit when it's hot though, it turns heads 😅
@@Involvod In my opinion i would just leave it as is and drive it happily, also get a chip to ecu and put some more boost 😁 That auto transmission in these make the stock one feel quite slow unless you punch it hard 😅 yeah that slap noise will turn heads in bad way when it's loud 😅
@@eebens4439 yeah I think that's the best thing to do! I'm hoping to pick up an M90 for it too, should be an interesting project, I wish I lived closer to Robert DIY 😄
hey I’m new to cars and old volvos and I see you dont have the smaller radiator with the fan in front of the actual radiator for the cooling system. I was wondering if that smaller radiator is for the AC system. If it is can I just delete it to make up more space in the engine bay ?
Shirt ordered, thanks for your brilliant content, so much fun, love it. And been so inspired, that I bought a rotten Ruby twin for myself. Yeah got a new old car with a ton of new problems! ;D ..but I'm happy. Kind regards from northern Germany (really north) :D
It really is! Definitely will use that before long though it's a lifetime tool. Gear shifter linkage bushes, probably a wheel bearing, instrument cluster repair and a damn good interior clean 😄
Lovely video and nicely done! My engine does the exact same chakchakchakchak noise, had it checked at the Volvo dealer where after a testrun, I got the reply was that it's normal, especially when they're not fully warmed up. Besides the unflattering sound a nice engine though.
Thanks! That seems to be the general consensus, as long as it doesn't get worse I'm not going to worry about it, my 240 sounds like it has rod knock but it's just bad piston slap, apparently hasn't gotten any louder in 11 years and who knows how many miles! 😄
Great work. When you grind the valve seat, it will recess further into the head. You need to compensate by adjusting valve clearance (shims in this case). Tapping is probably tappets out of spec.
Good point, I'll recheck them soon! I wanted to use it a little bit to get those hushers flat again 😃 It does sound very much like valve train noise doesn't it
@@Involvod Those engines do not have hydraulic lash adjustment. Any change in valve position relative to seat needs to be compensated for. Pop the valve cover and go lose with feeler gauge, you can then order a set of matching lash caps and fit them in one go. After grinding seat, valve will move further towards cam. So lash will decrease, not increase. In worst case, there will be no lash so there is a risk that valve is not closing fully, leading to burned valve edge.
Getting ready to do this on my 1993. I see that the exhaust manifold was simply unbolted from the head and moved to the side while the turbo was not removed. Did you simply have to unbolt oil and coolant lines to the Turbo in order to be able to slide the manifold off of the head studs?
pls bring the intro and outro back, the music has it's charm, it's been there from the begining and it's awesome. btw, is it possible to manual swap in germany without dying in the process ?
You're the only person that mentioned that, I wondered if someone would! I'm going to just trial it, to see if it helps with newer viewers sticking around, instead of clicking off. And I'm sure it will be a headache but I have to do it, this car needs a manual transmission desperately 😅
@@Involvod you could make it a "spoiler" with sth like pulling the head of Sylvia, or when you found the rust on Swiss cheese. then roll the intro as you already have their attention (you could also make it 5 or 10 sec long so it's easy to skip)
Yeah man it's definitely on the list, need to start hunting for a scrap one with an M90 in it, unfortunately not that common in Germany, just seems to be loads of early 940s 👎
I realise that it must have been the torque wrench you were using on the last bolt on the head on the last tension.? It l looked like you were using a length of pipe. Didn’t here the click with all the grunting. Lol
😄 It was a length of pipe, it was the 90 degree angle tightening, I tried to use the torque wrench on the highest setting but it went past it's 100nm maximum pretty early and I didn't want to damage it!

@@Involvod Yeah I forgot that part, in that case you need the tool. Great work though! And good idea, getting it started is the first point.
Sounds great! Like redblocks do 🙂 When cleaning threads I sometimes use an old bolt with a longitudinal groove cut in it, a tip I read from some repair manual - works great. I also forgot to put back the lifting brackets when I took the head off from my 740... And again when I took off the inlet manifold and thermostat housing from my other 740 😆

В России сейчас очень повысились цены на запчасти для моих вольво, в два или три раза, надеюсь успею дособирать их пока это станет финансово невозможным(Ты знаешь о ситуации с нашей бывшей территорией - Украиной, на которой последние 8 лет американцы(которые мой вольводруг, держат оккупационный контингент до сих пор и на твоей немецкой земле, хотя советы добровольно вывели свои) культивировали враждебный русским режим и теперь к сожалению, началась война). В этот нелегкий период нам как никогда нужна непредвзятость и неверие тому что с готовых ракурсов нам подают с экранов, я и дальше буду смотреть и поддерживать Вас, делающих видео по обслуге популярных в нашей стране северных шведских машин, поблагодарю от всего сердца за то что Вы делаете..
P.S шланг с повреждениями с турбины на интеркулер он с ранней 230FT турбины Garett(у вас ранний квадратный зуб до 93года, а турбина с 95 поздняя митцубиши, я говорил об этом, на турбины митцубиши шли цельнометаллические изгибы, у меня есть точно такой же изогнутый шланг ранний, а есть черная металлическая трубка изогнутая от 230GK\FK, может найдете такую).
Thanks for the info!! Good luck with your project, hopefully you manage to sort it soon 🤞
