Broken Engine Part

Post by MaranCarina » Tue Jun 16, 2020 6:38 pm

Hello everyone :)

I bought 1992 1.7 turbo 480 a week ago. Unfortunately only 4 pieces 480 were exported in that time so i can not find spare parts and good repairman. There is a broken engine part( attached). I examined volvo parts catalouge; but i could not find this part's name. Could anyone help me? What is this name? Also i have one more problem. After 3500 rpm while acceleration, there is hesitation and my car can not accelerate well. Have any one experienced this problem and can this broken part cause the this problem?

I am waiting your kind response.

Best regards

oooo, a Turkish member !!! Welcome to the club, and congratulations on your purchase. I'm sure you will get a helpful reply this evening, I suspect jifflemon (our on-the ball turbo guru) will give you your answer very quickly.
I hope you enjoy your 480 when you have it running properly. Good luck !!

Dear jifflemon. Thank you so much for your quick respond. I have already read this topic; but i want to fix my car with original part. As much as i understand it is impossible :cry: What do you think about hesitation problem? Can this damaged part lead to hesitation? If i try your solution method, can hesitation problem be solved ? I am sorry for taking your time but this is my first car and i don't have enough knowledge about technical info.

Potentially yes; The original parts are no longer available, and the "upgrade" whilst intended to help with modified cars, will work with standard cars too.
