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
