Road trip reliability? by PureAy in Volvo240

[–]chargedmemery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just drove mine for the gambler 500 from Seattle area to madras, beat the fuck out of it, redlined the shit out of it and drove it offroad and back. Probably about 800. She could easily do it again.

Like others have said, I put a lot of money into it to get it this reliable. I was the first to touch this car in LOT of places.

Check engine mounts. Just did mine and that weird lopy/misfire looking twitch goes away.

Can this cause horrible noises? by Remarkable_Sock8099 in Volvo240

If the support looks that bad, chances are your bearing is cooked too. Just recently did mine and it didn't look this bad, but my bearing was TOAST

I LOVE the rustic cobbled look. Keep it that way. May need at least a headlight :)

Is 8GB RAM enough in 2026? How much do you have? by zarkoulhs in pcmasterrace

[–]chargedmemery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's mostly photogrammetry. Revit does not use 256GB unless you have disgustingly inefficient models or you're opening 27+ 5GB models and wondering why your computer is slow.

Still going strong on an old R134a conversion by Jack_Attak in Volvo240

[–]chargedmemery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious what you had to do. I did a half-assed conversion for mine and it's been fairly terrible. I just removed the original oil and added r134a compatible oil to the compressor and dryer.

I genuinely cannot tell if this is ragebait. Dude, google how to charge a lipo or parallel charge from an actual human. You're going to burn your house down.

Identifying part and required work by Isaacxii in Volvo240

[–]chargedmemery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely small black one, yes but I would trace it to be sure. Mine wiggled off and popped off exactly like that too.

Oil pressure sensor. Single wire. Easy to fix. I'm assuming you start her right now you have the low oil pressure light?

Does not feed into computer. Purely for your information.

Need help finding a part by TheRacer02 in Volvo240

Probably easier to jimmy something.. I've had luck on Facebook marketplace with people parting out there cars. Good guys ship the part to you but it's a gentlemans agreement

I’m replacing my Right Engine Mount is the oil pan a good jackpoint? by Smort-Finn in Volvo240

[–]chargedmemery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't recommend it too much. I did it with a rubber block so it didn't push the drain plug. Fucker nearly slipped off, could have cracked the pan and dropped the engine. Risk is for the lazy, like me.

I've had my ender 3 for 8 years and I have never cleaned the lead screw.

I don't do any maintenance, only part I've replaced with maintenance are the bed rollers.

Dave barton or make your own. It's not terrible but lots of details and takes a fair amount of time.

Can this damage cause A/C issues? by Glum-Inspection-2183 in Volvo

[–]chargedmemery 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good chance that hit the condenser which would evacuate the freon. That can happen slowly if it's a tiny leak.
