Hello All. Does someone have a new fuel injector for my 164e B30f engine? Does anyone have a new Windscreen wiper switch stalk for my steering column?...
Hi, I have a 164E with Djet injection. It is really hard to start when cold. But once going it runs fine, and starts fine when it is hot. I really cant...
More than likely it's the electric choke. My father's 164 had an electric choke fitted on it from the factory and he had problems with it for awile until he...
Hi Craig, "electric choke" does not apply to fuel injection. I understand your car is a 164E, with a B30E or B30F not a B30A. From the symptoms it is very...

Hi Craig, I forgot to tell you, if your early 164E has an aux air valve that is not elecrically heated, you may safely install a later type valve and leave it...

Hi George, the right books do give good advice. Try the Haynes - there is one volume on the 164 and 164E but the D-jet is extensively described in the volume...

Hey guys! My 1974 164e idles weird too. In "park" it idles at 1800 rpm. In "drive" it idles at 200 rpm. At a red light, she idles so poor she almost...
I'm trying to fix a vacuum problem in my '69 164. Got it narrowed down to the manifold. Probably a small crack somewhere. Anybody got one, before I go...
I have a 75 164. It has a manifold in the trunk when I bought it. I dont know if its compatable or if any thing was wrong with it. It looks intact. you can...

Hi, If I am right a '69 164 must have a B30A, and a 1975 a B30E or B30F. Manifolds are NOT really compatible - both will mount onto the same cylinder head but...

Oh yes I forgot to say that the B30A inlet/exhaust manifold is a single piece of metal (cast iron) if I recall (please tell me if I am wrong, my 164 is a E...

I believe the correct p/n for the manifold is: 401107-5, at least that is what the gcp.se web site claims. That is the p/n they give for early 1969-1972 164,...

I have just joined this group and would be grateful if someone could let me know the essential differences between the 140's and the 240's apart from the round...
Erik Thanks for your reply but please explain further - what do you mean by awesome. I thought they were essentially the same, carbs etc but different lights....
OK, the main differewnce 240 vs. 140 is that the 140 has the B20 engine in it vs. the 240 which had in 1975 a k-jet B20, then the B21, B23, and later, B230 -...
Hi, there has been in fact a smooth transition from the early 140's to the later 240's. Volvo chose to change the name from 140 to 240 in 1974, that's it. ...
