I fixed my MAJOR engine issue! Volvo 240 Wagon 

I think about that all the time. My yard is full of cars and Im the one complaining…

Haha... we were watching the video a few weeks ago showing all the cars and my wife out of nowhere says.. "I bet their neighbors really love them"

@@rodneyss19 Wait until she sees this weekends video! HA We actually have a great relationship with our neighbors that you can see in the videos, The white house the other side of the driveway is basically our adopted family. All 3 houses across the street we occasionally get together(the 5 houses in total) for BBQ. The lady at the end of the road has a ring camera and sends me the clips doing donuts in the culdesac :) Funny thing is, we aren't the rowdy household

My neighbors sit around their front windows waiting to see what I’m dragging home next. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been under a car to look up and have one of them saying “what’s the plan for this one.”

@@just.a.realtor Yeah that can be annoying. Thankfully that's not yet an issue.

Very simple little cars! The best!

One redblock at a time!

@@DeanofMachines as it should be 👍

Might be fine!

You are absolutely right chuck! If the b230 is too challenging you can always go to a b18 pushrod motor. In car tear down and rebuild is an easy afternoon!

Bout damn time i brought it home. Have a decent parts pile to throw at it and Im ready to pull it in the garage now that the silver 240 is situated!

I couldn't agree more!!! These are the 14" Classic wheels which technically wouldn't have come on our silver 240's trim level from the factory. We FIRMLY believe they SHOULD HAVE! It looks sooo good!

In Dean we trust!

You and me both!!

Thank you Marcin! I prefer LESS drama in this situation HAHA. It was two days of work to get it torn down and put back together so I can make it to my job!

Theres a Secret Order of Lawncare Enthusiasts out to ruin each of my videos. Im sure of it!!!

Thanks man! Its a real nice car!

I actually cracked this valve cover later on. over torqued trying to get it to stop leaking.

Sometimes its just unbelievable. My neighborhood isn’t even that tightly packed

Thats a great eye! If you can believe it, that gasket failed and I had to replace it.

Thats how the red wagon went to hell LOL

I miss how simple redblocks are to work on.

It’s probably the easiest headgasket of any 4 cylinder I’ve ever worked on.

Also, these guys just dont give up. The video was filmed over 2 days and it was incredible how often they run around here

The 2.3 Ford Lima Head gasket in my Turbo Coupe was easier than the one in my gold 940.

Thanks Jo! It's funny how you can forget you know how to do things this deep in a motor.

I’ve never seen a fan clutch lock up like that. Normally, they just free wheel for quite some time after the engine shuts off.

Do you know what your fuel pressure is? Should be nice and smooth with fresh plugs and bosch ignition components

I was hoping youd catch it! I heard it somewhere and it cracked me up

Excellent! Thanks for sticking around I know its a long one.

@@DeanofMachines I love the longer content and everything else in between

They are just the worst lol

Do the redblock shake! *rocks back and forth*

We strive for the best around here. 😂

Atleast its an easy fix!!

I’m hoping I can avoid breaking stuff

Hey there, im not sure which you are talking about. Could you get a screenshot and email it to me? Info@deanofmachines.com

Hi there! I would definitely swap to a T cam when I turbo it. 240s are the best!

@@DeanofMachines they sure are! I absolutely love these cars! Great channel brother!

@@sonofliam8601 thanks watching!

They are just a set of oem classic mesh wheels

I think you’re right!!! How big of a turbo? 13c? 16t?

Maaannnn you don’t even know! There is soo much noise here it’s insane!

@@DeanofMachines i feel ya man. i live in east raleigh NC, any hour of the night there’s a VQ owner trumpeting down the highway

@@dunderheadgood Ah yes. A nighttime favorite around here.
