Hello,

It is time for me to change the fuel filter insert in my glass bowl strainer/filter. Other than from Sweden, does anyone have an idea where to get an insert and o ring seal? The service manual calls for a Carter F 827 S filter, which is hard to cross reference.

Thanks!

Are the part numbers Volvo specific? What's the difference between the B30 and the B30a engines?

Thanks!

Done.

Will give it a try. Thank you.

Thanks for replying to my post although its Thanksgiving. Do you have a reference for directions on how to adjust the linkage?

Sometimes, I'll get it to engage in low gear range and it slips out the moment I am accelerating in first gear. Any i...

Thank you.

Hello,

I have a 1975 c303 and am installing a new tactical light switch (3 position switch that turns off all lights, incl. brake lights).
The switch I have is a Kraus & Naimer c10-4 and I was wondering if anyone has a diagram of which wire number goes in what port?

Thanks.

Marcus
