Rotated tires....

washing it tomorrow, and hopefully wax and polish....

 

Drove it more than3 miles today on the Sport setting with the new chipped ecu! (that's how far I live from work) , Filled up with 93 and added a bottle of the Techron stuff to the tank.... She loved me for it,lol.....

 

Finished working on some Bling for the car.

 

Whoa?? You have boom in the trunk!

 

LOL yep that to!!! LOL

 

Sweet!

I am going to be doing that to my IC hoses once I get the other silicone parts.

 

Looks good on the Polishing!

 

I need to get the Samco hoses soon and get it all installed. I am also working on an intake manifold.

 

I didn't do it to my volvo, but I waxed my Ford Contour. ick.

 

Room Size Cherwin Vegas for that Room Size Sound. Man, that car is to nasty! Low, Tinted, Booming, Rare. If it gets any sweeter bees will follow it.

 

BTW, Today I touched up a new chip on my spoiler.

 

Finally washed the cars.....
And degreased the 244's engine. But man it still has some crap left. need a few more cleanings.

 

Yes but I need a REAL amp to push the Vegas. I have a cheap 1000 watt amp but it is more like 200 watts.

 

I purchased a K & N filter for the canister. Thinking about getting a pollen filter adapter and installing one of them.

 

I just put my car in a car wash, and clean it up.
Later I'll modify the outside gear/ accessories of my car.
I would like to have a knight rider looks.

I'm a newbie here to the Volvo Forum, so hello all! I just bought a 1989 Volvo 240 what was sitting up for many years it has 131585 miles on it. I paid 200.00 for it and had it towed to my house. The first week I had it I cleaned the gas tank and cleaned the strainer on the fuel pump. I then change the fuel filter and changed the oil. I also bought a new battery for the car. Then I killed many spiders and cleaned many cobwebs out of the car before sitting in it. I went to the gas station and bought gas. That Volvo started up after about ten minutes of priming. Now I drive it every day. I gave it a good cleaning on the inside and washed and waxed it ( photos will be coming soon). I need a new sound system and I have a clicking or knocking noise and I don't know if it is the power steering pulley bearing or the A/C clutch. The A/C is not working but it could be low in gas. I have never had a Volvo, but I truly love driving it. For a 4 banger its got *****. I will be bugging Y'all about how to things from time to time so if you get tired of my asking let me know.

 

Re-installed the battery that the kid at Wal-Mart could not install correctly. Go figure!

 

Well, I forgot to take the camera with me. This event actually turned out to be the best time we had in a long time. I only got stuck once because the hole was way too deep. I might have a pic of that coming up. I actually got rough with the old truck and it never even hesitated. The tires were the key. I got lots of comments on how well my stock Chevy performed compared to the much larger trucks. All the extra weight in the bed helped out. They all got muddy. I was lucky enough to get these images from someone who was shooting the event.........................

 

Awsome! Mudding looks like a blast. I went with my friend when he went offroading, and he let me drive a few trials.

 

I finally got the pics from our friend's daughter emailed to me. I mentioned only getting stuck once.........





As you can see, that hole was pretty deep. I was told to keep to the right while maneuvering between two holes, but apparently not far enough.



Notice the clean kid in the back of my truck? Well, he said he wanted to get muddy that night. He got out of the bed while I was being pulled out. The pull tractor was there within minutes. My friend hooked her up to the front of the truck..........



As I was coming out of the water, I started up the truck, dropped it in gear and hit the gas right after this shot........



Here is the priceless aftermath.................
