Tom Bryant in Maine will be your best lead in the Northeast for information: https://thosbryant.wordpress.com/

Baked Beans Garage has several good videos on these engines: https://www.youtube.com/@bakedbeansgarage116

I've put together a few videos over the years that may help with understanding the platform. Links below.

Thumbs up

To be honest?
If you are interested in this car, and it's meanwhile pretty rare and a cool classic, and understand technics and are willing to learn step by step, no hurry, just as it fits to your life then you can stand it. Spare parts are still pretty available and if you have time and fun to walk around junkyards or search replacement for missing/defective parts through the internet (Volvo-communinty networks etc.) then you will find what you need.
I started as a bloody beginner in 2006, then I increased the work with old Diesel-Volvos during the years. As an autodidact. For some work you need special tools, for others I can ask a mechanic (best someone who knows about these cars & engines). Depends also on my private conditions.
The main thing I would scare about would be only the old front timing belt, even when it may look good I would let it run only for a very short term for testing. Otherwise of course not. The risk of damaging the valves/cylinders/head due to tearing belt would be too high and costly.

I am not a pro at all. Made just lots of experiences with these models and engines. And this is gold value.

Best regards from Orlando, FL
Bernd

Just to clarify: You are getting 10deg. of free rotation from hard resistance to hard resistance, back and forth? (10deg. looks like approx. 3 minutes on a clock face.)

This site can host photos (size limited, click on the paperclip icon when posting to see the accepted file type chart) but not sure it can do video. Maybe you could post it to youtube and link to it here?

Observe the camshaft sprocket at the rear of the cylinder head while you are rotating the 27mm crankshaft pulley screw. Does it rotate at all when you rotate the crankshaft pulley?

Timing belt intact, that’s good. Next step would be removing all six glow plugs to then attempt to rotate the crankshaft pulley ,if one of the cylinders is hydro locked the coolant will be expelled.

Sorry if it’s like pulling teeth with this post. The car is 40 minutes away from me.
