Quick Engine Removal || Maintenance Work || My Daily Driven Volvo 945

In this video I do a quick engine removal of the B230FK turbo engine in my daily driven Volvo 945. I decided to remove it for ease of access in order to replace the rear crank seal that is leaking. I think that is also a good thing to do just to give the engine a look over for other problems.

Good morning my friend. Watching your video as i prepare yo head to a junkyard to remove 2 940s engines to hopefully put together a solid turbo engine for my 245. Is there anything you could add in relation to lessening the time spent in junkyard? I will be pulling the engine, transmission, driveshaft. I believe because my 240 is a 92, the hatness from the NA b230 in the car just needs mild modification (and the turbo ecu) as far as i know? Im hoping its that simple

[@BackmansGarage]

It should be pretty straight forward removing the engine, I would start with the driveshaft and work my way forwards. Regarding the harness I would try to keep as much of the stock b230fk/ft as you can, I can't say how many more wires there are but it's enough that you will save alot of time just pulling out as much of the harness as you can. 👍

@@BackmansGarage I appreciate your follow up so quickly! Have a lovely rest of your day (and great weekend!)

[@Craycola]

Great video and great channel! Complete novice thinking of pulling my B230FT on my recently purchased 945 as it needs a refresh and there's no better way to learn than to pull it out. Wondering if you have a manual or specific resource you'd recommend to help me with figuring it all out. I've found lots of useful info on forums/youtube but you tend to have to already know what you're looking for to find it. Keep up the videos!

[@BackmansGarage]

Thanks, i agree with you there. The best way is just to do it an try to learn from it. No I dont have any specific manual but try to stick with the Volvo greenbooks (orginal sevice manual) I think that the haynes and so on is a bit too general at times. There is one site that lists a few of the greenbooks, but some of them are in Swedish tho. www.v8volvo.se/mekartips/volvo/140-240-260/_140-240-260.html

@BackmansGarage Awesome thanks for the info.

@10:50. Now I know how to get to my oil separator box! Lol

Tackar för detta 👍

I got a 1989 Volvo 240DL, and has no spark. also hade to buy a new E.C.M and still not starting.

[@sbrew9033]

Yet another good example. Been looking for any vid content from you swedes in english language sometimes is a pain. It is very very helpful. Seems like the B230 is equivalent to the chevy V8 here in america. As a Volvo owner of many this is the first where I seen a front block off for the radiator as I am thinking this is due to the cold over there. Have not seen this in the states. Is it a factory part? Good job 👏 with the example as I never thought about ease of the wiring harness removal as I always take it from the motor. I'm gona give it a go next time. Thanks for all you do...

[@BackmansGarage]

The front block off might be a cold wether application, but iam not sure about that one. All I know is that does come stock on this particular model anyways. Thank you for the comment 👍

[@bobjohnson205]

Regarding your PCV system. I checked/cleaned/replaced my system in the spring of '19. This also included removing and checking/cleaning the oil separator box. I was very surprised to see how clean the box was on a B230F engine with 430,000 kilometers. It was virtually as good as new. I guess sometimes you get lucky!

[@BackmansGarage]

Just got done flushing mine out yesterday, It wasn't that bad, a little condensation goop in the very top of it. But one of the connection hoses was pretty stuffed. 😀

@4:22 I noticed something hat confuses me: Your battery poles are the other way around? Stock, The ground pole is located to the left side of the car, and the +12V pole towards the middle of the car. Did you mount a reverse polarity battery on purpose? (and why?)

[@BackmansGarage]

Not something that i have put any thought to actually. But maybe you are right, ill try to check it out next time im working on it if i can remember it.

[@lackylarsson2542]

Grym video Backman! Jag har dock ett helsike att separera elpiskans kontaktstycken vid respektive fjäderbenstorn. Är det bara att trycka in flärpen och dra rakt ut? De sitter som berget.

[@BackmansGarage]

Det kan vara lite ärgat ibland, ibland går det lätt och ibland är det riktigt bökigt. Prova att spraya dom i "blöt" med någon oxidlösare över natten så kanske det hjälper.

Thanks for this superb video, really looking forward to swap my own volvo engine 🤠

[@bobjohnson205]

Yep, that looked easy! lol

Is it necessary to remove the trans with engine or can you unbolt it from the bell housing?

[@BackmansGarage]

No it is not necessary, however the bellhousing is one with the gearbox and i just like to remove everything with such limited space under the car since i am only on jackstands 👍

[@crd6822]

What trans is that? M47?

[@BackmansGarage]

That is a Redblock M90 gearbox 👍
