Flame Trap ????? 200 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be brownboy on  Sat Feb 9 00:13 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Napoleon gave you a good description of the flame trap--it is a crankcase ventilation system. You can see an illustration of this at the rpr website: http://www.rprusa.com/frset2.htm

Seat covers that are well fitting and nice looking are available from ipd (www.ipdusa.com) but are expensive. Check the salvage yards for seats and other materials. I think that seats up to 85 will fit without alteration.

Don't know which parts you are looking for. Finding a good "pick and pull" salvage yard near you might be your best bet. As you spend more timeon the list you will see more people and sources. For older 240s I always think of Evan Reiser as a parts source; look for him at: http://brickparts.d--r.com/index.htm I also have a list of some other parts providers on my volvo page at http://personal.ecu.edu/brownmi/volvo.htm

Hope this helps. Enjoy your car!
