240 DL stalls during right hand turn 200 1983


This is the first time I have worked on a Volvo. It is a 1983 240DL 2 door that stalls during a right hand turn. No stalling Straight ahead or during left hand turn.

Kind of a stab, but your passenger side motor mount is broken and the insulation is crumbling on your engine's wiring harness. An 83 DL in the US has a B23F motor with LH2.0 injection. If you search on harness, you'll read many stories about this trouble and how to deal with it.

Art I can not seem to edit.... In"Rain gutter trim removal" I asked another set of questions to you.. As it is getting rather low on the list I am hoping you will find one of my requests to see that thread once more... Mac

Mac, a lot of folks would kill for one of those...what is it, B23A?, cars from Canada. But you had already asked and got an answer. Without much diagnosis done, a wild stab was all I could muster based on others' experience with the environmental wiring.

I'll go look at the trim thread; I remember saying something about double-stick tape not having much to grab on the rocker trim. Hope I have my terminology right...
