I got some decals from http://www.carclassic.biz but I'm not sure which are applicable to the 142 or where they should be stuck on....

go here to see an image: http://www.carclassic.biz/picturepages/volvo03.htm

I've got:

check belt tension: that goes on the valve cover

OBS! Note! use volvo genuine anti-freeze: where around the radiator does that go?

tudor safety: that goes on the battery

valve clearance/firing order, yellow sticker, where does that go?

yellow sticker with E1, E2, E3,E5 in circles, followed by strings of numbers..no idea where that goes.

small round sticker that states "replace your wiper blades once a year"

anybody know the stickers on a 140?

    Per,
    The only one left in the engine compartment of my "71 142E is the one about the coolant. It sits on that sloping piece of sheet metal ahead of the radiator; centered, on the portion ahead of the dip/gully, with the upper edge going a bit down over the edge of the gully.

      Per, that's the only sticker I know of, too. I have a picture I can email you, if interested. On another note, I saw you had painted the engine. May I ask what paint you used for the valve cover?

      P.S. Check out the engine pix on this site:

        Hmm..ok..

        The valve cover was painted with an "cast finish" spray paint, followed by a high temp clear. trying to go for that orginal look, which was some sort of zinc finish, I think.

        That is a pretty neat looking car. Do you have any idea what the two big silver tubes in the engine bay feed? They go to some sort of metal contraption at the front of that car, but what on earth is it? Neither my 1973 or 1974 142s have anything like this.
