WANTED: Volvo Vacuum Gauge

OldBlueVolvo · Dec 20th, 2010, 15:48

I am looking for a 'fuel economy gauge' to replace the turbo gauge on my carb'd 740. These were originally sold as an accessory for the 760 B28F but should fit my dashboard too. I appreciate they must be quite rare.

Please...

good luck trying to find one of those! i just found a digital ambient temperature gauge on swedish equivalent of ebay today, but cant afford the 40 odd quid it would be. never even heard of that tho!

hope you find it!

Hey there! I'm on the hunt for a vacuum gauge for my 240 and came across your message. Not two minutes before I did, I found this little gem on ebay--

If that link doesn't work by copy+paste, lookup "volvo vacuum guage" on ebay.com. You have to intentionally misspell gauge or else it won't come up. I have to tell you, I nearly thought I'd won the lottery until I saw the 700 series marking. Hope this works for you!

Cheers!

Brian

Many thanks Brian, that looks just like the gauge I am looking for! Well done for finding it.

I won't cry if I don't win but it will be a belated birthday present to myself if I do.

Thanks again.

I've just seen the shipping: £24! Plus the possibility of customs charges as it's coming from the states. This could get expensive. I'll see what mood I'm in when it ends.
