you'll have more luck if you could post your engine code as mostly different engines used different ignition systems

not directly. use VIN from tag and this reader: http://volvo-480-europe.org/volvo480/vin_reader.php to find out your engine code.BobDeere wrote:sorry .. but where can i find the engine code?

the code itself on the engine is located near oil dipstick, where it enters engine block: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Vg2E ... plates.jpg

Re: Wanted ignition module for my 1989 480 ES
that's enough.
what you're looking for is Fenix 3A (also known as F3A) ignition coil by Bendix. found on early 440/460/480 1.7 B18F 70kW/95HP engines, from year 1988-1989.
it has that vacuum regulator integrated on to it. have same 480 with exact engine though don't remember where vacuum tubes go from it

I found coil in one shop, the price estimated about 22E, the seller claims that this coil is also for B18F engine. But I don' t see the vacuum?

it's coil winding. however from the look of it I've doubt it would fit F3A system - haven't disassembled mine on B18F engine as it works fine so far. somehow coil itself looks slightly different than this one.bigdickbuster wrote:I found coil in one shop, the price estimated about 22E, the seller claims that this coil is also for B18F engine.

also Volvo doesn't provide separate part numbers for coil and ignition module for B18F engine. it just gives number for whole piece.
