Thats why, no belts - no slipping, in the new variomatic. Shure, there can be problems. The new vario. has such a variabylity thah when you give full gas you could break the diff or you just burn down the wheels. :twisted:

The acceleration should be great, and it should save gas, like every vario.

The other up side to LPG is the emissions test will no longer be a worry as LPG is much cleaner. Also your oil will lsat much longer. I've extended my oil change from 6 to 10,000 milese between changes. That is not absolutely true. Yes the oil lasts longer clean, but watch for acidity of the oil. I...

Hello dear Volvo drivers :D

Have a question on you.

Is it posible to change the B200E - with a Turbo Garret T3 B230FT or 2.0 L 200 hp (150 kW) B204GT ?

Hi, if i think over you problem, it look`s similar to my. The hole problem can be in Renix High Voltage Transformator. Look for more in http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/viewtopic.php?t=3506 The timing of the HVT uses all so underpressure. If there is something wrong it could cause this problem.

The rear spoiler is Hella from Germany, and the front is a very old one, made for a Russian car LADA - VAZ 2101. :lol: :lol: :lol:
It fit`s pretty well and it look`s good. The only problem is, that he is not long anuf, so i can`t build the fog lights in.
