In over 20 years of ownership my '90 740GL has only given me trouble two times while on the road. Once was with the crank position sensor the other time was with the heater control valve. Neither time was a trip ender. With the CPS I just waited 15 minutes or so until the engine cooled and off I went. (I later replaced it.) With the HCV I was close to a public tourist centre with a source of water and was able to bypass the broken plastic valve and get it home. One thing that will ruin your trip is if/when the top hose connector on your rad snaps off. They're plastic and over time - 15 to 20 years - become brittle and snap off. So, keep a close eye on that.

Great video. If you aren't sure when last the PCV system was serviced, it is good to do. The oil separator and flame trap clogged will cause all sorts of fun oil leaks. Amazingly, people will spend the money to reseal the engine and not do that service, so the new seals all leak almost immediately. Oftentimes the PCV service will stop the leaks without doing the seals at all. I use the PlastX on Arthur. Here in North America, even the headlamp lenses are polycarbonate. 30 years on, and my lights are as clear as new. You will have better luck with the PlastX if you smear it in with a cloth, then let it set and haze before you polish. It takes a little time to neutralize the oxidation. Brand new tail light assemblies are available. Check eBay. Swedish Car Parts sells them, for one. They are much better than any used one will think of being. At less than 140,000 miles, your Red Block is just nicely run in. These really are million miles engines. I'm coming up on 400,000 miles on mine and still goes like new.
@princepugh76834 жыл бұрын
Agreed - PCV definitely good preventive maintenance - from memory, the hoses to/from the flame trap get badly gunked too. The system on this engine doesn't seem to be common knowledge for all mechanics and I don't think it was in the Haynes either, I only found out by querying a mechanic at my local Volvo indie; so you can see how it is missed/ neglected.

Many years ago, I was in Woburn Abbey lion enclosure with my family on a very hot day, over 80 in old money, in my Mk. 2 Zephyr. It was very busy and the traffic only moved up a few yards at a time. I noticed the temperature gauge soar way over maximum and was afraid it would boil over, so I stopped the engine and put the heater on full blast, which did the trick. I had to repeat that several times and we really did have to sweat that out because, being in the lion enclosure, we couldn't open the windows to let the heat out.

I noticed that this engine has to turn over a few revolutions before it fires. There is a trick to starting these, especially when cold. This was shown to me by a very experienced Volvo technician. Obviously never touch the throttle before or during turning over the engine. Turn the key briefly so that the engine turns one revolution, then let it sit for about ten seconds. When you turn it again the car will start on the very first turn.

The top hose stub sheared off my 740's factory-fitted radiator in the summer of 2006, leading to an almost total loss of coolant. Luckily, it waited until I was 100 yards away from home before it did (I'd been driving at motorway speeds mere minutes before), so no harm was done.

I had a similar problem with my poverty 1.4L Sandero. Well, not similar. But, in my case it was a plastic thermostat housing that seemed to have had deformed a bit (not visible) from age (and thermal cycles), and was leaking coolant. I bought a no-name one for less than 3 Quid. And it managed to last 800 km before it started to leak again. It turns out, those cheap hausings are not as flat as they should be, and the thermostat O ring was not enough to seal it (not even the silicone that was added). The direct plastic to metal is designed to seal it. Very strange. Anyway, since there was no name brand aftermarket one, I had to buy an original one for 30 something Quid, and since then it is sealing without problems (without silicone) for thousands of km.
