Informative video. It would be great to see the actual step by step, detailed video of changing the distributor cap, rotor, wires and spark plugs of a 240 model. Maybe a future video? Thanks.

[Drakkenfyre]

Thanks for the vid! I already got and installed all these parts, but I paid a fraction of the price I would have from the dealer, with the help of IPD.

Thank you for this, I'm thinking about doing a tune up for my 240.

Friend, I have a Volvo 740 gle from 1988, petrol and gas, it costs a lot to get it. I give the key several times and it won't start. I'm getting very sad, because it was a childhood dream to buy a 740. Please help me!

am i going to notice any gains, if the engine runs fine with no misfires?

[rickkrockstar]

wow, I own 3 of that 1981 245 California b21f, 1 is same color. easiest Volvo to work on ever,

I have an 850 and just purchased your deluxe tune-up kit. A video performing a tune
up on an 850 simply cleaned the rotor contacts and plugs. I'm wondering if this is
effective for extending the use of the current rotor/plugs. How long do the plugs and
rotor normally last? Thanks.

How about the modern gasoline (gas) with alcohol.. or gasol... Will the gas eat up the rubber in the engine?...

Needs to be more Volvo specific. We know how spark works. How about Flame Trap. Fuel Injection systems (there were many).
