Hey guys, I just bought a case of this stuff to do an ATF flush. Is this the correct fluid I can use for the 1994 940? I saw the instruction on FCP said it should say compatible with trans that require dexron II. I didn't see it on this though... https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/NTN75200

I don't know what I've done but the website changed on me last week. It's all black with a skull up top that had some issues with a shifter. At 32 my eyes are going to crud so.... the black on white was much easier on me. I can't seem to find a way to switch back in the CP area... is there...

So I went to the local pick-a-part for a sweet set of Hydras. Well I'm quickly learning you had better show up the day a car gets to the lot. I didn't walk out empty handed although. I scored a honeycomb grill off of a 91' 940 for the sum of $11. The car I took it off of had a 4 headlight...

Hey guys, I'm not sure what I did but the radio and cigarette lighter aren't powering on after I opened up the fuse area to try and tighten the cigarette light port back up. I realize now that I probably didn't have to open the fuse area at all to get to the back side... but now its too late...

Hey guys, so I'm having a bit of issue on the 940. When I'm driving around town the throttle wants to hang around 1500rpms and really hesitate to go back down. I have earlier tried adjusting the kickdown/throttle based on the info on K-jet but I am not doing so well. It seems like regardless...

So the big reason on getting a wagon vs. sedan was the cargo room to use it as a make shift bed on road trips. I doubt it'd be terribly comfortable but it'd serve a purpose. Are there any threads or links that have Info on this? In theory It's easy enough. Make a pattern, cut, and upholster. I...

Hey, so I'm pretty anxious to get the 945 back on the road. I'm taking the alternator down to get tested this morning. I was wondering. If I need to replace it is there any options to swap with at the junkyard other than 740/940? They have a huge inventory but only one smashed 740 for the...

So I bought my first 900 series 2 days ago. 175k miles, one owner, beautiful condition... until I come around. I know nothing about cars. I've grown to loathe this thing in 48 hours... and I know it's all my fault. I cleaned the engine and hosed it down. I had no idea but god only knows how...

940 high idle "corrected" with residual issue... help? Okay guys, I bought my first (in a very long time) red block today. To say I lack car knowledge is an understatement but I'm learning. Today I washed under the hood and attempted to detail things. Bad idea to begin with. I knoticed as I...

This is my first Volvo. I've owned it about 7 months now and around a month in it started giving me problems when trying to crank. It will crank fine for a few days, going multiple places but then all a sudden it'll just decide it doesn't want to fire anymore. I can let it sit for 30 minutes or...

So I was doing a tune up on the 240 today and ran some cleaner through the throttle body. When I disconnect the fresh air hose (not sure if that is correct terminology) hooked up to the trottle body one of the hoses that connects to it broke. From what I could make out 2 hoses are connected to...

So this is the start of the second week I've been driving my newly acquired 240. I drove it to work this morning and everything was fine. I did notice there was a light on the dash that showed a "!" mark in a lightbuld like figure. I figured it was a warning light but it went away. So fast...

So I just ordered some 195/70/r14's for my stock steelies on the 92' 240. Is that going to be a big deal over getting the 185's? Gawd I hope not.

I was wanting to buy some steel wheels for the 240 but something in more of a 16-17" size. Preferably something I can bolt up without spacers. What are my options? I have a 1993 240.

I was going to take my grill apart on my 93' 240 and do some touch up if that is possible. I was mainly concerned with the emblem. Can I crack that thing open and repaint it some how?
