Добрый день. Отличная работа ! Поздравляю !

Engine installed and running
 

Here's a video of the engine installed and running. I'm very happy with the power and "feel" of the engine. I did an RPM calculation and I think it's turning 3400 rpm's at 70mph.

I've got a tachometer from a 1985 TD Jetta that I'm going to install which should work with the W terminal on the Audi alternator. I'll test it prior to installation.

Thank you!

What do you want me to see in the picture?

Предпологаю volvo устанавливала 5 цилиндровый дизель на 240 модель и назвала его d20.
Спасибо за Ваш расказ и фото . Я в живую на Ваших фото увидел 5цилиндровый idi.
P.s. На фото мой прекрасно работающий d24 ( dw ).

It is expected Volvo installed a 5 cylinder diesel on the 240 model and named it d20.
Thank you for your disclosure and photo. I saw a 5-cylinder idi in your photos live.
P.s. In the photo my beautifully working d24 (dw).

The 2.0TD are very rare in the U.S., it took a lot of research to find one from Canada. You have a good idea to put that in a 240, it is a smooth running engine, very similar to the d24 or d24t.

Excellent job on having the d24 running well in the other photo!

REPLY TO THE AD.....NOT HERE....NOT TO ME

@Nevadan: I saw an old Quantum Syncro on the road the other day that reminded me of your 2.0TD swap project you were working on a couple years ago.

How has it been working for you since you completed it? Any updates or photos? :)

It ran well for about 400 miles until an oil line popped off the oil cooler I put in and I ran it dry; burned out the turbo and there's a "ticking" in the head that I can't figure out and have too many other projects to get back to it. It starts and runs but I have to rebuild the turbo. The gearing is a bit low, it runs 70mph at 3,400rpms. I will get it running again. Another thing I never totally figured out was the cooling system, I think the radiator sits about 2 inches too high and I had a problem keeping the coolant level correct. I could bleed the air out the top of the radiator and make it work but something just wasn't right.

I loved the torque of that engine, very similar to the 2.4 and nothing like the 1.6.

Darn that's a bummer to hear. Hope you do return to it and get it running again. Maybe an excuse for a turbo upgrade?

3400 at 70 is a little high but the engine probably didn't mind. Would be good to see it reach the road again, keep us posted.
