Your 40 MPG can't be bad. After fixing the bad petrol pipes at the rear of my 1.7, I went on a long journey and genuinely thought that the fuel gauge had stuck, over 50 MPG.
Mine preferred working on the bigger volvos :-)

the plug gaps changed when the very long nosed ones came out on the B14 4E handbooks were, and still are a bit inaccurate sometimes .. My figures came from the volvo green manual .

looking at the fuel consumption we all should have bought GLT's instead if B14's ...
