Anyone close enough to check out these 164E? Same guy has three fuel injected cars with manual transmissions.

That's at least two motors maybe three and three 4-speeds with overdrives. And unless I am mistaken three rare eight bolt flywheels. Not to mention the incidentals like pedal assemblies, cross-members and column mounted switches and shrouds...

And that doesn't include the rest of the cars for parts. It sounds like they are pretty bad but the prices are probably less than scrap...they would have to be extracted from their current location and it doesn't sound like he will be parting them or shipping said parts.

If someone close to there would like to work out some kind of arrangement I would be interested in making it worthwhile. Also, anyone else feel free to chime in with parts requests.

E-mail me and we can talk by phone. kronikov@gmail.com

It's on the other end of the state from me and unfortunately just don't have the time to go chasing parts right now.

You may want to try giving a shout out on turbobricks CT forum.
There are other CT even MA people (since Union is on the state line) who may be able to help.

vintage volvo 2 164 parts cars - $250 (union)

http://hartford.craigslist.org/pts/4377389288.html

volvo 164's from 72 and 73. Rusted out. both 4 speed od fuel injected. 250 each. You figure out how to winch them out. have good 14 inch tires and rims to help move them.

Access to two M410s and corresponding drive train bits ... is salvageable and I had a destination 164 to put it into.

I'd like to. All 240 over here. Merely slap a more modern engine control system on it that is truly sequential - injector opens on the intake valve open only.

Oh well.

Hope that helps.

cheers,

Kitty.

True ELECTRONIC sequential injection only happens at idle to very low speeds. The only bona fide sequential injection system is the old Lucas system seen on DFV's, old CanAm cars & on the Triumph 2500 PI.

There ain't nothing wrong with the old D-Jet on B30 until you hit 30% more power which is actually hard to do without drastic exhaust port surgery. Until then, very simple adjustments to the MPS will let do it all.

Sorry. I'm confused, then.

I was under the impression the D-Jetronic on the B30 E in the 164 e opened three injectors at a time in a two by three array. Three injectors squirt, then the other three, and so on.

It's been a long time I looked at the Green Volvo and blue Haynes (when Haynes was better) 164 manuals as they are packed away and I've given up hope I'd be ever own one. I'd hoped to. With M410, of course. Moon roof optional.

So, than, the Bosch L-Jetronic is not sequential, meaning the an injector opens on intake stroke, more of less, only for a cylinder?

Maybe I use the word sequential wrong. Port injection? I mean to say, as before, the system opens the injector at the cylinder on intake stroke, and closes as or before the intake valve closes.

The D-Jetronic seems not to yield the best fuel economy; better than carb. Not that the 164 is that economical to run. Yet to install a modern engine control system may yield improved performance and economy.

I'll take a wikipedia and other wiki sojourn for my edification, then.

Still, through, a 1972, well, any year, 164, with M410.

Thanks,

MacDuff
