Which green manual do I want? 700 1990

I just did a timing belt (all belts) and tensioner job, on my 1988 244. The manual #TP 300871/1 was invaluable. Good Pics, and correct torque on crank pulley. (Bentley shows 1/6 turn as 90 degrees). I also have the special tool #5284. Since I wound up doing removal,replacement, removal,replacement several times, and I have 3 daily driver 240's, the tool is worth the cost. The rope trick is - for me - second best.

Call 1-800-25-VOLVO and see if that's Ken Cook, the manual publisher. If you can get a human answer, you can ask about manuals.

The other important manual to get is the wiring diagrams book. The pictorials of ALL the sub-systems are not repeated in Haynes or Bentley, and I have found them invaluable.

Good Luck,

Bob
