Another, newer Nick's Garage episode featuring the 164.

Put the 600 HP engine in the 164 some may say?

I'd rather the dual carbed B30. Maybe the mechanical fuel pump diaphragm failed after setting for such a period?

Hope that halps.

Wants to own a 164, 142, 130 Boyeeeeeee, someday, with manual transmission.

Or make a 162 with B30 and M410 from a 142 or 242 as others have done.

On an earlier video I pointed out that they had fitted the new fuel pump upside down! That didn't give me much confidence about its future progress. They corrected that and its just about running but some way to go before its sorted.

I had a 73 142 stick shift, it was my first Volvo. Wish I still had it!
