Timing belt at a B230....
NOT at a B230H and B230K!!!

I put a new one incl tensioner on when purchasing a car.
i put a new one on when oil leaks apear, new front seals and timing belt incl. tensioner
Done, never changed one again

they are free runner, nothing happens.
36k or 3 years is a joke
100kmiles and 8 years they will last at minimum.
Neverever had a broken timing belt in a 8V Volvo with factory cam.

the alternator and power steering belt will break in front of he timing belt.
such reliable cars.
My one now with 350tmiles on the car, more than 400tmiles on the engine and 100tmiles on the timing belt.
My last 945 the timing belt did last even more than 150tmiles! Test car, a Deer and my Elk went in suicide together. That engine went into my 945 now!

16V bangers and the only two (B230H and B230K, with 631 and xyz head) are no free runners. Take care!

Griston: I would change the CPS soon, pick up a spare fuel pump relais, a spare ignition controler and a spare RSR. This are small parts and fit into the glove box.
I've never ever seen a clocked oil separtor box at a B230 Turbo engine. The small part on top of the tube with a Y conection will be clocked before.
Dizzy cap and rotor I will only use BOSCH, nothng else. Leads Bougicord are the ones.
Check the vibration damper on front of the crank carefully. They are prone to crack and slip.
good luck, Kay
