Hi Folks,
my screen name is pretty self explanatory, my name is Jason, and I'm in St.Louis Mo. I'm working on buying a 84 760 D24T with the ZF22L auto that I cant find any info about. Yes, I started this forum before I even have the car... Its kinda tough to find them anywhere in the midwest! I'm the service manager at Archway Import Auto here in St.Louis, Mo. I'm also a machinest and engine builder. I do everything from air cooled vw engines to diesels. I'm the owner/administrator of the forum and am always interested to hear suggestions on ways to improve it. In fact, it was Even's idea (posted above) to have a member introductions area. Jason

I'm George (v8volvo), have a 1985 745 with the D24T/M46 combo. Live in Seattle, WA; just drove the car here from Boston, MA. My daily driver is a 1981 VW Rabbit diesel, same engine minus two cylinders and the turbo.
I have most of the factory tools and some of the books pertaining to the D24T and am happy to help anyone in the Pacific Northwest area with service on their Volvo diesel that requires those items.

I was living in MA the last 4 years (was in school back there). Bought the car in Maine, spent a few months fixing it up, graduated, and drove it out west.
2 years ago I drove my Rabbit from Seattle to Boston, then from Boston to Denver, to LA, to San Francisco, and finally back to Seattle. Compared to that, driving a nice cushy Volvo from Boston to Seattle felt like a walk in the park. Thanks for getting this set up! :-)

'83 760 GLE Brick red
Hey, I'm in Athens, GA and I have an '83 760 GLE with many "quirks" like a blown head gasket, faulty turbo, fuel gauge and odom that do not work and the weirdest oil drain you've probably ever seen. I've had the fuel injection pump rebuilt and put a new radiator in it as well. Needless to say, I'll be posting and asking questions on the repair threads. Nice to find this site. I've had my 760 for about 3 years now. I'm also on the Bajaj scooter forum in case there's any d24t/bajaj crossover!
