Cheers, thats usefull info.
As much as i have fell back in love with these things again, it gets a tough time of it! You kinda forget how good they are compared to modern rubbish and forgive the crap dash binnacles and exploding door pockets! And the gash interiors on some, 1 im running at mo is a fetching shade of calf skitter..... |

Dash binnacle, the thing behind steering wheel that lies a lot, all gauges have a mind of there own, while they read something it doesnt actually correspond to anything.
And door pockets that are so brittle...... |

Dog dish - dual mass flywheel?
I thought they didn't come in until much later on the 940s, if so it suggests you've had a replacement engine and/or box at some point. Surprised your hounds didn't want the flywheel filled with food!

Nope, not DMF and yes dished. Standard for 240, 740 and 940 with M47 gearbox.
Being the B230 its a 228mm clutch |

Right, i'm confused now - the way i've always understood things gearboxes were :
M45 - 4-speed M46 - 4-speed + O/D M47 - 5-speed Going all the way back to the 145 i had when i was 17, the Volvo handbook depicted the M45 and M46 - the M47 hadn't come along when it was printed. Also as mentioned in my post above, the Haynes Book of Fantasy reckons the B230E has an 8.5" (216mm) with all other models using a 229mm/9" clutch. To me that is counter-intuitive, the B230E being the most powerful (n/asp) engine available should theoretically have the largest clutch. As such it would make more sense that the others had the 8.5"/216mm and the B230E had the 9"/229mm clutch. All my other Volvos since that 145 have been auto (except the 360GLT and a very short-term 440Li that isn't really a proper Volvo IMHO) so i've never needed to go anywhere near a clutch on a Volvo.
