    Lamda mystery wire

    I have one of those sensors that I believe I can find. I'll get back to ya. Are you just filling the hole in the head? You did not add CIS to your car...? I will just add that if you did that, the biggest part of that conversion is having a place to screw in that sensor. Since you have that...

    Hepu water pump early failure

    Who cares about efficiency in a water pump? You have guys here complaining that the pump over-pressurized their cooling system and blew out the freeze plugs...:roll:

    The Buchka 242 Daily Driver

    Thanks for good answers. I am a big fan of Gougeon products, and use WEST System regularly. Didn't know there was a room temp Pro-Set.

    The Buchka 242 Daily Driver

    I echo all the big compliments; your composite work is quite impressive. I am speculating that the flow medium became a large monolithic mass once the resin cured, making it impossible to really *peel* the peel ply. Questions: I see only one point of infusion in the photo, right? The resin...

    Need help with crank no start

    There is a large red wire at the relay connector. That is the power to the relay. There is a large yellow&red wire at the opposite corner of the connector; this is the power out to the pump. If you pull the connector off of the relay and jump between these two wires, the pump should get power...

    945 Rocker Panel Repair Good Practices?

    ^ Agree, there are good photos in the 940 truck thread. Are your rockers perforated or is it surface rust? Maybe put up some pics. Regarding the drains, I don't know how the 940 system works, somebody else will no doubt comment. I am familiar with the 240 rockers, though, and I would not...

    Watts linkage? Yes, no or maybe?

    But... But... that is what I appreciate so much about Mueller's build thread. It never seems to move closer to driving. It is hard to even see that as the goal. At every step he posts, he goes deeper. The answer to the question in the title is ABSOLUTELY, it is a must.

    Old to new board version of links

    Looking at Dave Barton's site and was reminded that he has many links to TB threads. I guess all of them are dead now. At least the one I tried is.

    1976-1980 remote start??

    If, as you say, it starts up immediately, then the cold start injector may be one of the best parts in the system. I would put attention elsewhere, as some have suggested above.

    Old to new board version of links

    That sounds pretty easy but I have dozens of threads bookmarked. Sure wish there was a better way than one-at-a-time...

    Flame Trap - Old Brass vs Newer Plastic

    Agreed, the brass unit is much harder to clean if packed with crud. I have one like that; it has resisted all soaking and poking so far. When I find someone with an ultrasonic cleaner I hope to try that.

    1981 244 GL High MPG - daughter's first car

    I don't have specifics, but it has always been said that old/bad gas is the devil for Kjet. And how about all those cars that "ran when parked" but don't run now? I imagine that deep in the works of the fuel dist there are disgusting things happening. The injectors love to get dirty and spray...

    1981 244 GL High MPG - daughter's first car

    Do you know how old that gas is? If you already started it then any damage is already pretty much done. I always drain it and put it in a carbed vehicle. Still would recommend that.

    Rusty in Tucson (1971 145S)

    Nice job. I bet with that fat axle it rolls real smooth.

    240 windshield R&R - DIY or hand it over to the pro shop?

    I am having a hard time believing the years given for the fitment of those clips. It seems to me that they should work on any car with the stainless trim- from '75 up to when the trim changed- maybe '91? (not sure). This is not based on any solid documented knowledge.

    Rusty in Tucson (1971 145S)

    I don't see the roller in the vid. I suspect that it is missing. That can happen after years of neglect. What I can see is a hole in the top surface of the bracket/housing, and another hole that is sometimes visible in the bottom surface. If I am not mistaken, those holes are where the axle for...

    Rusty in Tucson (1971 145S)

    I'll bet the door moved a bit better after that grease douche. Something you should know is that the strap that retains the door rides on a little rolling drum inside the door. Those drums commonly seize up and then slide on the strap instead of rolling. There should be no need of grease on the...

    1992 Volvo 240 Driver Door Power Lock/Window

    Here are some links to threads covering the repair of the harness for the lock. The switch that wraps around the lock cylinder will unlatch using the tab that appears on one of your photos, with grooves across it. Pay close attention to how that fits onto the cylinder; it comes off much easier...
