    Bolt specs '93 240 (2) top rad support brackets and (1) airbox support bracket

    I cannot find the specs for these three bolts, which I think are identical. Anybody got 'em? Either apart number or ID so I can order? Thank you

    Six hours in the car yesterday to pick the new shoes up downstate. Got to meet a cool 240 owner too.

    I need Virgo lug nuts ASAP

    Thanks - I see a set that could work but they come in two lengths: 1.38" and 1.9". I don't want them poking out, but I cannot determine how long the OE ones are. Thoughts? edit: rolled the dice on the 1.9 as the photos I see of OEM lug nuts appear long-ish.

    Stinking badges

    For a '93 245 trunklid. The "chrome" finish is faded and it's driving me bonkers. I have found new "VOLVO" badges from a couple of the usual parts house suspects, but does anyone sell the "240"? I can only find "240GL" badges. Or am I stuck to watching Ebay?

    '93 engine bay - I need an original reference photo or a restored engine bay as a reference

    This is great, thanks. Wasn't there an orange fan warning also? Nearish where the vac diagram is? Incidentally mine is a single owner from new. It had the same cosmoline (I think that's what it was) in the same place as you have (more actually) and acetone took it right off.

    '93 engine bay - I need an original reference photo or a restored engine bay as a reference

    My '93 engine bay is clean AF (compared to other vintage Swedish and German junk I have owned) and I am in the process of buying decals to replace missing/torn/worn ones. Anyone have a pic I can use as a reference? Fan warning location, oil cap/filler neck (never seen this on a car, but the...

    Sorry, I should have been clearer. The washer for the acorn nuts on the valve cover.

    Stupidly anal retentive question re: wagon external vent screws

    I'm glad to know I'm not the only one LOL I'm changing the acorn nuts on the valve cover to new stainless ones too. This is my life.

    Stupidly anal retentive question re: wagon external vent screws

    I am obsessing over my new to me 245 and jumping in to clean up little niggling things. The screws on the vent are a bit rusted - anyone know the replacement size?

    Teaser. New daily. '93, 261k, one elderly couple owners from new. I have virtually all the paperwork going back to the lease. Religiously maintained at a local specialist. The best 240 I have ever owned by a mile. Immediately put into daily service. I'll post more pics when I finish...

    OG trip computer option questions

    I have a line on a NOS trip computer (edit: I guess "driving computer" is more accurate") but have been told that (i) it is only for carbed models (340 I guess) and (ii) the harness needs to be modified for 240s. (i) seems suspect as I cannot believe anyone would go to the trouble of making two...

    Wiper arm linkage clip for motor replacement

    hiperfauto you are my GD hero. It took only a few minutes to complete and test everything and THEY WORK!!! :) Top position doesn't (interval I suppose) but I think that's the relay. Anybody got a part #? I see a few on Ebay but they have various numbers. Does the rear wiper use the same...
