>B230 non-turbo w/ 2 valves per cylinder

I've only run into one B230 that had a timing belt off a notch. According to the receipt, it was done by an indy, yet the tech felt it necessary to paint blue marks on the gears. After repositioning the belt, my daughter was a bigger fan of Volvo, because it could then merge on the expressway ramp safely. Before that, she just thought the 4-cyl was sluggish by nature.

I wonder what year and model you own, Mike-- your profile leads me to think you drive a B234 with 4 valves per cylinder.
