Volvo b230 pcv, flametrap, box cleaning

With translation!
How to clean the crank case ventilation box/system. In volvo 740, 940 etc.

[@christopherlaskoski189]

Just gotta say - Ain't nothing in this world more sexy than a Volvo 240 being discussed in a language foreign to me. It's a win win situation. Thank you for your video - but I am going to move forward with a full removal of the intake manifold on my 91 because I really want to detail the engine to the point of being clean. I'm so sick of it being so filthy!

[@codyhurley]

straight to the point 👍🏻

[@p47thunderbolt68]

thanks for that, very helpful

[@mikaelblomqvist4307]

hej kanske en dum fråga men ska man byta ut delarna eller kan man rengöra... och vad är bäst att rengöra med ....en bra video så man förstår hur man meckar

[@BoldCreator]

mikael blomqvist du behöver inte byta ut något om det inte är trasigt. Kolla särskilt slangen som går från burken till insuget. Du kan rengöra med lösningsmedel. Eller lägga hela burken i ett dieselbad. Ett hjälpmedel är tryckluft för att blåsa ut skiten också. På en del bilar utan turbo så sitter det även en flamfälla på slangen. Den är mycket viktig att rengöra.

tack så mycket för ett riktigt bra svar nu är alla frågetecken som bortblåsta

He doesn't discuss EGR completely covering the first 12 mm bolt holding the box down. And it is nowhere near easy doing this job without removing the intake manifold. And in addition you're going to find that unless someone has done work having removed the intake manifold your gasket is going to be cooked to charcoal and will need replacing. So yeah even with the intake manifold push to the side a few inches you will still need a very thin 12 mm socket to get between the Box and the head of the bolt while putting pressure on the EGR valve pushing away from the 12 mm bolt.

[@BoldCreator]

That is not true. It is just as easy as shown in the video. Unless you have big potato fingers ;-)

[@seanford1387]

i used a 1/4 ratchet and 12mm deep well socket to get mine out also find it easier to remove the 10mm bolts for the starters harness as they mount to a plate that holds the box down

[@slipperypete420]

@@BoldCreator on intercooled turbo models they put an egr valve right over the bolt closest to the front of engine. Some fuckery required

[@JPTHRICE]

i have some sort of actuator valve right next to my box and it makes it really hard to remove one of the bolts even with the manifold off. whats that valve doing there? 744 turbo intercooler

[@BoldCreator]

JP3 I have never heard of that. Sorry.

[@DRESHCO84]

EGR valve

[@brutus943]

did you get it out? have the same issue on my 940, cant acces the 2. bolt. Help :/

[@Raydoesitintime]

Remove the battery and take it apart

[@bobdelaplage690]

Thanks, could one pump it empty with small hose?

[@BoldCreator]

Yes, with some degreaser too

[@bflytillyoudie]

but how do u clean the box out ?

[@BoldCreator]

Soak it in some plastic friendly solvent. Then wash it out.
