Hello to you all from Estonia!

I am a relatively new owner of Volvo 945 D24TIC ´94. My third car was a diesel and Volvo is my third diesel since that. I am still putting my car in proper condition and If that is done, some tuning will follow.

I apologise now and for my further posts about typing errors. I just never studied english.

Welcome!

Nice to get new members near Finland.
Hope you find help there for thing and another.

And about typing: ive proven they dont care about it- atleast not in forum,
tho with eyes of my soul i can see them screaming on their comps ripping their hair^^

Estonia! I really never immagined that I would end up with members from so many places overseas! This is great...

Margus, please post up a couple pics of your D24Tic car! I'm guessing you have the M90 trans that we all wish we could have!

Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for nice welcome, Jason and IceV_760.

Sorry to dissapoint you, Jason, but my car has M46. I havent any nice-looking pictures made myself. I saw in this forum a thread about europeans walking more and using public transport. I am one of them

. My Volvo is mostly for weekends what makes it a hobby, not routine.

If the weather is nice this weekend (only 7 hours of daylight this time of year), I will make some pictures and a thread in this forum.

hi my name is don and i just bought a 1985 740gle turbo diesel automatic. its my first volvo but not my first diesel. right now i also have a 91 dodge cummins thats bombed out. it runs good. just tweaking with it right now, tuning it up. flushed all the fluids and replaced some boost, injector overflow lines, blah blah blah

Welcome.
You'l the Volvo sounds just like your cummins once you get rid of the exhaust! One of the reasons I love this car. I just sold my 92 D-250... First gen Dodges are great trucks, I've had 6 myself!

Hi,
I'm Abe, and volv8 referred me here. I have a D24T motor that has been modified to fit in a 240 series car (intake, oil pan, engine mounts are modified). But....I have a gas M46 transmission and a spare diesel bell housing that I want to use. I recently found out that the output shafts are different sizes in the gas vs diesel transmissions. I'm here at the forum for guidance in making these two work together. So I'm going to do some searching now.
I am also looking for throttle cable spools for my motor because it didn't come with them.
Any help would be appreciated!
THanks,
Abe
