What year 240 did the engine come from?

Also, I'm puzzled as to why you went to an engine that was 300cc smaller
than the original--were you trying for better fuel economy?

Hi, the engine is B200E it's new engine from Volvo Goeteborg company. But
I've put the used Solex Cisac carb form B200K-1985 Volvo 240. The ignition
is from B19 or another older engine, I don't remember.

I've put smaller engine,because I can buy the new B200 with 0 km, it's new
one, the price is $300!!! So I've buy it,put the mechnaical ignition,put the
Solex carb (I hate electronics equipment in engines,so B230F is not for
me) )., ant put out the old B230F (500 000 km), and all electrical
equipment. But I don't know what degrees of ignition I've to set (7, 12, 15,
18 ??? ).

Hi,
I have looked in my Haynes manual in Finnish language on CD:

It suggests for this engine with the vauum hose NOT attached

B200K ...15° at 750 rpm
I do not know this engine at all, but if it does not have an electronic ignition
I would install one.

Good luck,
Viktor, Vienna, Austria
