Yeah I'm pretty sure the diesels came with the T3, I don't think they ever got the Mitsu blowers. I'm also pretty sure all 940 turbo diesels were intercooled.

I owned an early ('90/91ish) 940 diesel saloon which wasn't intercooled

Badged with 940TD on the back. It was mostly low specification except for the cruise control.

Thanks for all the info guys! I’ve had the sump welded up now so just waiting for the sump gasket to come then put that back together. I’ve bought a cambelt and an injection pump belt to fit myself but I’m struggling to find any decent info on guide to do it! I enjoy tinkering and would be fine doing it with some accurate advise! Does anyone here have much experience in servicing this engine??

Not much experience, but have managed 3 belt changes and somehow it's still going...
If you need copies of the relevant manual pages you are welcome.
The copy I have was photocopied by Volvo from an original (? may still be available) and the images have suffered as a result. As long as you are not removing the camshaft the only special tool you must have is 5187 (crank tool). I don't know if it's possible to replace the injection pump belt without removing the cam sprocket - if it is then tool 5190 won't be needed. I saw a recent post about someone offering to loan tools, but cannot recall the thread.

Ill do it for you, if you like. i charge £150 labour and usually a full belt kit is around £130 including a water pump.

Doing a cambelt on one of these engines is the single most difficult thing to, and is the most important thing to get right. Its also the reason why i have 5 engines with scrap heads lying around, because people dont take the nessecary precautions.

I cannot stress enough how carefull you have to be.

The main cause of snapped cams is failing tighten the bottom pulley to the correct torque. And trust me. Its bl**dy tight!
