I'm doing my Saturday PMs on all the cars and noticed something strange on my kid's 86 240. The alternator is cocked, causing a bend in the two belts that drive it (why two belts?). I crawl under the car, and it appears that the rubber bushings theat the distributor mounting bolts go thru are worn. Are these special Volvo bushings, or would a standard rubber bushing of the same length and diameter work? I'll probably do this when I do the timing belt/seals job this week.
