Found an ECU in a parts car--maybe. 200 1992

posted by  someone claiming to be Bond. James Bond. on  Thu Dec 30 05:20 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I've got a 1992 wagon w/LH 2.4 injection system that's running a 561 ECU. So far so good, buuut...I've seen many warnings on the board about 561s. I'd like a spare.

The owner of the parts car doesn't know much about Volvos. All he knows is that it runs good. Before I drive quite a ways on what could be a wild goose chase, can someone tell me whether a 1990 240 has LH 2.4, same as my 1992?

If so, it should have either a 561 or 951 ECU, right? Either would interchange with mine?

One other question: Someone here has reported that Volvo modified late production 561s before they switched to 951. The late production is supposed to be more reliable, and it can be identified by the color of the part # sticker.

Does the original version have a white sticker, and the modified version a pink sticker, or is it the other way around?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
