Time to cure gas leak around my fuel pump area. I'm 2nd owner of my nice condition 1977 242, so I try to take good care of it. About 160K miles on the clock.
Have owned it for about 18 years and I'm sure it's never had the fuel pump replaced. Regardless of where the leak is, I'm not having a mechanic dig in there without replacing the pump. I've purchased a lot from ipd over the years, however, their listings come up ,"does not fit," foe my '77. I would like to deal with, "one of our own Volvo folks," in getting one. Volvo branded would be great or maybe Bosch. I have lost touch with suppliers over the past few years so need suggestions where to shop......please. Also would be happy to hear what else ought to be replaced at this time. (I know there is a, "canister," of some sort up in there too). Will request high quality fuel injection hoses also, but have forgotten the markings for the best ones. Need to order soon, and appreciate any help any of you can offer. Dennis in E WA state
