Oil pump bolt on B234F : May need to let T-belt set aside while you replace it .... 900

RobertD,

Forgot to answer your next question.

You may want to follow the procedure to a T(-belt) by aligning the over head cams to TDC, as listed on the FAQ page. Alignment of them pistons to valves are a critical matter in the B234 or B230 E, so much so, why not pull it all off and start over.

I'd like to futz with the B234 like you are.

Heck, Yoo-Hoo-Bube-Toob-face-space-book has videos of people that installed the B234 quattrovalve head on a B230 block, like my 1991 & 1992, without the counter balance rotating shaft. Maybe a few were also turbo charged? That'd be awesome. Maybe a 700-900 for the larger engine bay to do it. I'm too old and poor to do it, anyhoo, anymore.

Been drivin' like a little old man in my little old man Volvo 240 car since 1985. To the complaints of passengers. You know, like one car length space in front for every 10 MPH. Oh well.

Volvo: Drive Safely.

Or maybe, in the modern era:
Volvo: Drive Bling-y. Like that "new" S 90.

Hope that helps. The FAQ had all your answers. Engine alignment while futzing with the T-belt are a wholly critical affair with that B234 head and block.

cheers,

Broadband Boy.
