Thought on PS

Dennis reminded me that space was at a premium around the v belt area. That is why we added a 12v smog pump instead of a belt driven one. You may be looking at a need for a drive off a jack shaft to drive the power steering pump. A/c suggest using a roof mount. We determined that with the small cool...

volvo fuel injection

The 164 fuel injections can be done. What we did was to take an old 164 that was fuel injected. Then take the engine and ALL of the engine wiring harness. The head, the crank, and electrical system are the difference from the car to the c303. I believe Dennis used the C303 crank, injected heads, and...

Try this

Cole, Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I was sick last week. The prior owner of yours once wound the spool up tight enought to stall the engine. What I did was to start the engine and run in neutral untio you can hear the switches making the hissing sound when you change from in to out. At ...

Winch operation

A stupid question, but are you putting the t case in neutral and then putting the transmission in gear and letting the clutch out? These are a power take off winch. The engine must be running and the transmission must be in gear. If you are doing this reply and I'll try to look at the next step.

check the brake

The one that I have worked on had a brake around the input shaft of the winch gear box. That unit's brake was rusted/siezed and had worn out all fo the brake material. We freed up the linkages and then had the brake friction material replaced. I would start there as the unit appeared by design to wo...

24 vdc fan

Contact Dennis at Linden engineering. He has installed one that used a 24v American made motor to drive the existing fan, but I think the same supplier can do a complete replacement fan unit.

You're welcome

That third switch drove me crazy finding it on a customers vehicle. I even had to look in the service manual

brake light

3 switches turn on that brake light. Parking brake switch, proportioning valve (non self centering, pull switch from valve to let re center), and finally an overtravel switch on the brake pedal. Push brake pedal to floor and look, there is a plunger that will activate a switch and must be physically...
