I dont claim to know what im doing (trust me im a dumbass) but ever since i could walk i would help my dad (who happened to used to work at a Chrysler dealer) ive been working on cars my whole life. Im 16 now still have alot to learn but i love working on my own car. And after seeing what some back yard mechanics have done to cars i can say im better than the average self proclaimed "mechanic"😂 the intro is my daily routine 😂😂😂

Most of my other folks have had some fun ones and the s80 sob story aside (won't work on them.. read: one Volvo not to buy... 1999-2004ish depending who you talk to..) and a few 960 b6304s with porous blocks, they are fun to work on and being a true turbobricker I can say I like my old "cheap" stuff. you should build that up. you actually did a decent job for being a "nonmechanic". don't talk yourself down.

No, iirc it was introduced with the PRV6 (same engine in delorean). B230ft, the engine in the video, was available to 7 and maybe 2 series Volvo's. It's the trim, non-painted parts and dashboard layout that make it distinguishable as a 740. 960 had a 6 cylinder too and the same aluminum hood or bonnet as 760 body.

I've got a 1990 n/a automatic 240 DL and up until late this past August, it sat in our garage for 20 years. A new fuel tank, both fuel pumps, fuel and oil filters, oil change, belts, starter, ECU and brake fluid, and alternator and that ole brick is back strong as ever! Very clean for an Ohio car, extremely little body rust but the bulk of the bad rust is on the suspension. It's ok for now but I will be redoing the suspension soon.

Are you for real? Tell me this was just a show and that you were not that smart to put the belts on and just take them off then to replace the water pump. Chances are the old water pump is fine - it’s the seal / o ring between the water pump and the cylinder head. We had an exact 1987 Volvo 740 Turbo and we (son and I) did everything on it. Original clutch till 180K miles and both our kid learnt to drive on it. Still wish the rust had not claimed it. Ziebart had blocked up all the drain bolts in the frame rails. Loved that ‘Silver Bullet’.

Been there, done that...front struts/rear shocks/replacement (salvage) head on the B230FT/water pump/belts/probably a few others...all about 10 years ago now. Turned a '90 745T with a bad head ($600) for about $200 and sold it for $1400...225K miles or so. 740/760 with the 'ol B23/B230F is amazingly great to work on, just takes a bit of practice. When you're done, don't forget to replace that turbo inlet hose from the airbox...the duct tape is leaking and costing you valuable boost. 😉

@hooviesgarage here's a quick tip for getting oil out of your clothes. Use 1/2 the amount of detergent you'd normally use, and add 4-5 drops of Dawn liquid dish soap. Your clothes will come out like new again. Dawn can also be used for spot treatment and food stains. 👍

This is why you make a list of all the things you need to do to a car, go through and examine each thing on the car, and then decide what needs to be done first. The water pump should have gone first so that the reinstall of the belts covered the install if the new belts.
