Catch Cans, PCV Systems Explained, Electric Vacuum Pump Conversion, Cold Air Intake - Volvo 740 D24T 

Very nice of you to explain not only what you are doing but also why its important, really looking forward to the day this car is finished and on the road again

Just got to love your reasoning: “because Volvo of course” 😂🤣😂 Great update, truly a gorgeous piece of 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Volvo, can’t hardly believe how good it looks like right now, especially looking back at what you started with 🤗👍👍🤗

Engine bay looks so clean! Cant wait to see this thing come together.

The amount of knowledge is incredible. Keep up the awesome work.

It’s unbelievable to see the transformation of where this car was to what it is now thanks to your expertise. Love how everything is coming together and how it’s retaining a more stock oe look.

Great explanation and easy to understand...one of the best car channels on RU-vid IMO...keep the content coming!

Great video. I’m excited to see the finished product, at the same time I’ll be sad when it’s done, because you’re the only source of really enjoyable Volvo 700 series content, and if this car is done then where will I get my fill of Volvo 700 series videos? Also, love your use of mismatched construction sounds, hilarious!

Just so enjoyable to watch you solve problems! Great work.

Can`t believe its been 2 years already, time runs by a little to fast for my liking. Btw, the shrek moment gave me a good laught😂. Im exited for the next couple episodes, keep up the good work 👍.

My new fav youtuber, we need more 240 content tho

Another entertaining & informative video. Good work! the pump kind of sounds like the 80s board game Operation

Love the longer videos.

Excellent pcv system diagram

Damn good job dude😁 please keep making longer videos👌 is it possible to get a pdf version of the D24tic engine service and rebuild manual?

At 4:00 you mention "old school guys" deleting PCV systems simply because it's an emissions device. The truth about why it used to be done is quite different though. Early(crude) PCV systems would often contaminate the air/fuel mixture at WOT, effectively lowering the fuels octane rating, and cause knocking. The systems also tended to increase carbon build up, again increasing the likelihood of knocking. This wasn't a major issue for older vehicles that were designed for, and ran on, leaded gasoline as the fuel had octane to spare. It typically wasn't a problem with later(1970's) stock low compression engines either. Hotrodders are gonna hotrod though and as they ditched their dished pistons and swapped back to small chamber heads, the early PCV systems showed their faults. On a modern street car there's no reason to delete the PCV system. They are now usually computer controlled through a solenoid and don't allow crankcase gases to enter the combustion chamber under heavy loads. There is still a case to be made for going a different route under extreme conditions such as for sustained high RPM or forced induction engines that build more crankcase pressure than a normal PCV system can handle. Those applications often use belt driven vacuum pumps that vent through a catch can.

link the merch! your channel is priceless!

shout out to the pcv system cause my 940 turbo has almost no rings and sounds like a diesel but keeps on going

Amazing content 👌

Nice video 👍

duude, love your videos, keep em coming, your explanation is the best! btw, can i get your climate vacuum diagram? mine is not connected to anything, i need to fix it and cant find anywhere my car is 740 1990 b230e with the same climate control.

didnt really get why the pump isnt "lagging" and what you did about it.. I tried doing this on my old 960 d24tic but i got explained for me that beacuse the ac is "powered" by vacuum it wasnt fixable and that i could ride as it was.

please make sure to put some dynomat and sound abosorb in the doors it will make a night and day difference. Talking from experience cause i drive a 240 diesel

Your videos on this series are amazing, this is helping me swap a d24tic into my 245, I am wondering how that altitude compensation bobble is wired? I have the solenoid on the side of the pump but nothing else, is it required to run?

Project is coming along really well! Having to repair the paint for a faulty captive nut sucks. Excellent point about the direct injection engines. Big issues with carbon build up in the 2.0L (VAG based cars) and I suspect pretty much every DI engine given enough time. Good to see you making headway and taking us along for the ride.
