Acceleration vibration:
I remember folks installing stiffer non-Volvo motor mounts in their 240’s and complaining about increased vibration. My point is perhaps 1 or more of your mounts have been replaced with non-Volvo OE motor mounts leading to increased engine vibration. My experience with all Volvos is that it’s important to use factory motor mounts if at all possible.

If you decide to replace any mounts and can’t find Volvo OE mounts, I suggest trying Tasca Volvo in RI. They used have a good inventory of parts for older Volvos at reasonable prices. Check their online site.

If you end up replacing tie rods, get a good alignment afterwards. Dave Stevens had a good point. If any tie rods are needed, consider replacing all of them at once. If you replace them one at a time you will need to get another alignment each time.
