Are B18, B20 & B30 pushrods all the same part #? Are they all the same length? Are B18, B20 & B30 rockers all the same part #? And therefore the same? Do they...
I believe they are all the same. The push rods are solid units and inferior to the IPD replacement rods. The IPD units are hollow, very stiff, and lighter....

Yes, like Fred I believe the rockers and pushrods are all the same, at least for the early B20 and early B30 (though I never tried IPD pushrods). Same rockers...

I had posted that info awhile ago on a Volvo group, but the set of 1.7:1 for the B30 runs around $700.00!!! Definately not something to throw money around at! ...
Hmmm. We got a set of IPD lifters. They are so heavy... Even compared to the originals in a 164. We ended up remachining the ones we had in hand and lightening...
Isn;yt the answer to fit a steel wheel? Yes steel wheels are heavier but they can easily be lightened :-). They look cool with lots of holes. /dlh. ... snip ...
Speaking of noises, my recently acquired '70 164, (B30A with 75,000 miles) is beautiful & quiet until around 2,500 RPM. Then it starts this horrible metallic...

I would take the valve cover off and let it run and see if any of the valve springs are binding. Of course things seem to echo in engines so it could be ...
I have this problem with the 73' B30E I can start it, it idles fine, i can udjust so it idles at like 2500rpm. But when i press the accelerator pedal the...

Yes it is a funny problem... And for me seems to be intermittent also... In that i mean, now after it has been standing for 24 hours, i started it, and it...
Thanks, fella's. Sorry, no oil in the face! I plan on taking the front case off anyway, as it has an oil leak. (damn I hate cars that drip oil). I will try to...
Already had this sort of symptoms on mine, years ago. The ECU is very reliable. It is likely the problem comes from wrong idle switch adjustment, from an air...

I am wuite sure that it is the trottle switch wich is causing these problems. You have to adjust it. Try adjust it when the motor is running. It is a "gap"...

Most likely the engine vacuum sensor. They go bad in strange ways and this is one of them. No amount of adjusting will help. As I mentioned in a earlier...
