I have to agree. Built like a brick outhouse. Simple to service, and parts are largely available. Great mechanics car. Show them a little love and the Volvo will show it back. Nothing drives broken like a Volvo. I will have a 850 water pump and timing video up pretty soon. Thanks for watching and commenting. _Dan_
I've been contemplating this job for awhile. I love the fact it is not sanitised. The sock fell of and you had to retrieve it. Thanks for the demo, I feel confident I can do it now.
Hell yes. I have just removed the tank pump from my 93 940 wagon. It was an epic struggle. Now I have to replace it and reinstall it. To get the assembly out of the tank it required the usual "rotate and withdraw" motion. At one point I actually moved the assembly back into the tank slightly to get clearance before finally completely removing it. I hope to video the reinstall process and demonstrate the manoeuvre. I have watched about a dozen videos on 240/740/940 tank pump removal no two are exactly alike. Every model has a different processes and even the same model have differences. The sock on mine has very small holes from wear but this can down grade the pumps function severely I am told.
the seal has to be on the assembly w jelly & telescoping piece contracted w string to then slid down in& when you have properly in place cut it & pull string throughl& withdraw it..After doing this a few times & maybe best to drain the gas into gas can s & then drop the tank,,you can see if the straps are in good shape,,
Hi! i did the same work on my 740 GLE 1988 i found the fuel pompe died and the little black accordion pipe cut, i replaced them , but i didn't finde the same black pipe; so i put just a normal one which is not accordion. what kinde of probleme i'll have because of that? Thanks a lot !!!.
Thanks for your video. I have a 1990 Volvo 760 GLE with the Peugeot V6 engine. I may tackle replacing the in-tank pump soon. I have looked at the Airtex pump. There are no identification symbols on the pump for + (plus) and - (minus). Did you have to deal with this, or was yours labeled, and what manufacturer did you use? Also, around the 34 minute spot of the video you mentioned, "that's the vapor valve, a solenoid controls the venting from the front...". Can you expand on this, I am wondering if my car has this solenoid. Finally, if the in-tank pump fails, do you know if the car will still start and run. And what symptoms will this create?
God bless you I just got gifted a 1979 242DL - starting issue and I’m cash poor and desperate! Never worked on a car before🙃😶😬 Im a broke and desperate. Between you and Roberts Diy, the brick board and Matthew site I hope to god I. An figure this out!
thanks for the help !! i need to get some channel locks like that.. I have a question. Upon disconnecting the fuel line that feeds into the fuel rail atop the engine, once i crank the car (with it off) should it spew some fuel out, because it is not. Is this a sign of a bad fuel pump ? Bad relay ? (also, the fuel guage shows empty when I put 4 gallon into the tank. (BTW, its a 85 Volvo 940 w/ 94K) It was my moms car and has not started since 2014 - Can you help w/ why it wont pump fuel to the front of the car out thru the line that feeds into the fuel rail. Any help is appreciate ! thanks, PGarza
Do you have the OEM-part number on the pump? How many litres of fuel does it deliver pr minute and at how many bars? I have to replace mine on my 940 with an B230FK engine and I can't seem to find the answer :/
Sorry I don't have the OE number, or the pump specs. Is your setup single or dual pump configuration? If dual pumps, the in-tank pump is low pressure (lifts the fuel only) and the real work gets done by the external pump. If you are looking for a higher volume - consider a Walbro pump. You will have to adjust the fuel line plumbing a bit but there will be sufficient volume for all but the wildest configurations. _Dan_
@@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537 Hello Dan. Thank you for your reply. I run a dual-pump config. After doing some further investigation (with alot of swearing and fidgeting with the pump-assembly) I finally got the pump out. I found the OE-number and got the info I needed. :) I wasn't sure if the tank-pump was the issue which is why I didn't get it out sooner. I found out that biltema (The scandinavian walmart-equivalent) has the pump I need. :) Edit; The part number for the FK-turboengine models is "bosch 0 580 453 037" if anyone else wonders.
Hi all dose eny one know if a f reg 1988 or 1989 Volvo estate 2.3 litre non turbo have a pump in tank and if theres one under drive side Meany thanks James
@@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537 Hi Meany thanks yeah what it keeps doing but not all time when you do about 20 miles is dropping the revs to about 100 and stalling at junctions or around about when engine gets warm it will start again no problems I was wondering if it might be a fuel relay have you any ideas cheers
@@jameshole6629 Morning. Hmm 🤔. All seems fine until pulling to a stop and intermittent rough low idle and it stalls? Good restart. A few things come to mind. Idle control sticky (electrical control to bypass the throttle blade to control idle speed), or throttle body gummed up and needs cleaning and base idle set. Vacuum leaks would tend not to be random. Could be fuel pressure but that likewise should show up anytime and especially under a load. My approach is to confirm the simplest first, and then move up in complexity. Usually it identifies the issue in most cases. If your engine uses an EGR valve you can disconnect (temporary) and see if the issue repeats. Carbon can gather at the valve port and cause a mystery internal vacuum leak you can’t hear. Canister purge could if everything lined up perfectly cause a raw fuel slugging (if the cannister has liquid fuel built up) into the intake - but a real longshot. Let me know what you find.
@@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537 Hi the house of broken Dobbs I have clean the carburettor with carburettor cleaner and I found a air lake on the air cleaner and it seems to be ok now but also the weather has got cooler so don't really know what it was but Meany thanks

I love the engineering Volvo put into the 200-900 series. They are among the best vehicles made.

my neighbours and i were in this process and had trouble with the re-assembly. your video got us past some nasty bottlenecks. thank you, Sir.

Gary LeLacheur You are most welcome.
Thank you for posting this video. It is tremendously helpful!!
Most welcome
Thank u excellent video I have a 940, and I'm a women but have been able to do a lot on this car myself
Do you live in the SF Bay Area??? I need help , sister🙏🙏🙏
a bigger opening would be a wonderful idea

@@mayflowerlash11 it totally blows
I'm doing this job on my '91 745...in January in Ohio. I'm so glad this can be done from INSIDE the vehicle.
You're lucky you don't have a sedan! lol
Awesome information & tutorial very detailed instructions.
Thank you !
Im gonna test this out tomorrow, lets see if its going well🤓
Auto cinema verite...well done thank you.
Thanks for watching
Очень полезно БЛАГОДАРЮ!!!
Thank you!
Great informative video , I shall be doing this to a 1997 mk 1 V70 estate (wagon) ...it can't be that different to the 940 etc !
Thank you!

If I may add, you know it is in the correct position if after istallation the car is driven and when turning corners it does not stall out.

Why is the rubber lip on the part that is supposed to go in the fuel tank not going in the fuel tank
What's preventing you from putting the seal on the fp outside the tank
God bless you

KMAS thanks for the update. I agree the pimp can be a pain. I finally relaxed my grip a bit and let it take its own path. That worked for me.
Is the in tank pump the same on the sedan?
Unsure - but I am guessing they are very similar .If different at all.
Volvo was pretty good at keeping things simple and common.
@@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537
Yeah that makes sense, thanks for the response
Hi all dose eny one know if a f reg 1988 or 1989 Volvo estate 2.3 litre non turbo have a pump in tank and if theres one under drive side Meany thanks James
I believe it has two. In tank lifts (low pressure) to the frame rail pump (high pressure).

Hi the house of broken Dobbs
I have clean the carburettor with carburettor cleaner and I found a air lake on the air cleaner and it seems to be ok now but also the weather has got cooler so don't really know what it was but Meany thanks
Does this apply to the 1988 740
I would expect very close if any difference they would be subtle.
@@houseofbrokendobbsthings5537 thanks
just use a block of thin wood to set against the ribs& push that u dont want any steel sparks!!
Titanium hey? Ok I’ve got something that might just top that, from a “bush mechanic’s” perspective anyway...
