Just saying hello, I purchased a 1991 volvo 240 wagon about 2 weeks ago. It has 145,000 miles on it and I do not know much about the service history. My neighbor works at the dealership and told me about this car that was for sale, the dealership had put a computer in it recently. It is clean and looks like it has been loved by someone. It drives well, I have had the fuel pump regulator replaced and the check engine light came on this morning. Everything seems to be okay, not running hot or anything, so I will more than likely drive it with the check engine light on.

I love the space and it just seems like a smart car, I am not a hot rod so the power is fine for me, its my first car with working air conditioning in a while and it is great.

I will try to post pictures later.

Welcome vern, my first car was the 240 as well, plenty of room..enjoy.

 

Welcome. Stop by an Autozone and they can read the codes to see why the CEL is on. Probably a simple fix, but I would want to know.

 

Welcome aboard.

 

Delayed welcome.

Good to hear your 240 was taken good care of. I would double-check on the fluid levels on all fluids, as well as general tune-up items. When I buy a used car, I usually go after all filters & fluids, thermostat, ignition components, rubber parts, brakes, tyres, etc...

Make sure to follow scheduled maintenance to keep it going strong.
