So having the car tweaked after the engine build it got me wondering about the readings the standard 850 dash boost gauge shows approximately. I have pondered over getting an aftermarket gauge but...

940 headgasket is a piece of cake to do, sooooo much room to get in and undo everything. Added bonus is headgasket kits are cheaper than the 5 pot kits.

Bit of a noob to volvos but if u've got the front plastic cam covers off would be worth changing all the front oil seals while they're there.

one thing less on the list to go wrong and they're...

I joined just because of how cool that looks on the 3 spokes!

Lol exactly the same as mine this morning, replaced the valve and thermostat, job done and now hot as a swedish sweatbox :)

Regarding the black smoke, it's usually overfuelling. I know the management is much different from my T4 but on the T4 using a stock intercooler, the intake temps begin to rise a lot from prolonged...

Back the mbc off abit and let the Ecu learn also clean your maf .940s tend to overfuel on boost anyway but not by a lot .also get the back box off you car and decat or racecat it .you will get more...

All the 940s I've owned have had that pipe and the idle valve on (but never clamped).

Something isn't right there. Perhaps the idle valve is broken and they've adjusted the throttle flap to suit.

It does mate

vida suggests that pipe is from the wrong car, so maybe the original rubber hose had split and the owner used a secondhand one from a 740, but this clamp was the easiest way to close the unrequired...

I have no idea about 940s just a guess - the hose for the idle air control valve??

you should be able to get near the end of the white before ignition cut kicks in

I've got one and i have plugged it into laptop and it shows everything the same as a rica 304 I run on this map from eBay and I haven't had any problems with it wot so ever and I'm running my boost...

surely as long as you fit an AFR guage and boost guage too keep an eye on thing it cant be that bad
