1977 Volvo 262 264 265 Fuel (line) filter The fuel filter is located on the firewall. This filter is to be changed every 30,000 miles. The filter is replaced as one complete unit. Fuel (tank) filter A filter is installed in the suction line in the fuel tank. Its function is to prevent any dirt in the tank from being sucked up to the fuel pump. The filter should be cleaned every 15,000 miles. Air cleaner Replace the air cleaner cartridge with a new one every 30,000 miles. The cartridge should be replaced more often when driving under dirty and dusty conditions. No cleaning of any kind is to be made between the above mentioned intervals. pg. 52 Emission control systems Checking and adjusting idle speed and mixture ratio and manifold balance This check should be made every 15,000 miles. The idling speed should also be adjusted and the mixture ratio and manifold balance checked at the 600 miles inspection. Fuel system cap, tank and lines, and connections The effectiveness of the fuel system to contain hydrocarbons is largely dependent on a leak-free system. Check for proper sealing of gasoline filler cap which contains "O" ring type seals. Check all evaporative hoses in vehicle for tightness. Check fuel lines under vehicle and repair if necessary. Inspection of fuel injection electrical connections The electrical connections and fuel lines in the injection system should be checked for chafing and corrosion every 15,000 miles. III Engine Ignition Components Change spark plugs The spark plugs should be changed every 15,000 miles. However, city driving or fast highway driving may require changing after 7,500 miles of driving. When fitting new plugs, be sure to fit the right type (Champion BN 9 Y or corresponding). Use molybdenum disulphide ("Molykote") to lubricate the threads and torque to 13-14.5 ft. lbs. (18-20 Nm). When changing the plugs, check that the suppressor connectors are in good condition. Cracked or damaged connectors should be replaced. When changing spark plugs, clean the cables and cable terminals, also the rubber seals. If the car is driven on roads where salt is used during the winter, coat the cables with silicone. file:///K|/ownersdocs/1977/1977_262_264_265/77262264265_03a.htm (11 of 16)12/22/2006 10:08:30 PM
