Hello, just found this site. My wife said there's aVolvo for sale and I should go look at it(daughter first car?) 1991 240 GL body great, no rust but someone stole the converter. I can't see underneathto see any other damage. Doesn't want to idle with foot off gas pedal.I wonder if the O2 sensor is gone. Not sure I will buy, no maintance records. I can put on a lift though. Shawn

Welcome.
If you would also start a post in the tech section to get more looks at the post.

Most likely when they stole the converter they took the o2 as well and cut the wires. How much they want for it?

Welcome.

No records no buy.

Also I highly recommend buying an 850 for your daughters first car.

1995-1997 850 model. N/A or Turboed, N/A insurance should be cheaper then a turbo model.

Car is at a lot. I would offer $1200 maybe. A lot of unknows here, but if the price is right and I have a large shop it might be okay. Shawn
