About Jason Boyer Expertise I don`t hold any official certifications, but have worked extensively with late 1970`s and
early 1980`s Volvo 240 series, and personally own a 1980 240. Its gone from a hobby to
obsession during the past few years, and I enjoy talking about almost every aspect of the
early 240 series. I`ve developed relationships with many Volvo mechanics, and tour
salvage yards regularly for parts and good information!
Experience I've performed many exaustive mechanical operations on my car personally, including a
brake system overhaul, a complete drivetrain changeout, various misc mechanical and
electrical tasks, and almost complete replacement of everything cosmetic.

there is a recall on the airflow meter for volvos. This is the common symptom. This can also lead to other issues, such as AC compressor shutting on and off in short cycles, causing you to blow the AC compressor. This was my experience. A temp fix is to clean the throtle body intake.
