Advantages of the 1988 Volvo 740 versus other years of manufacturing . . .

1. Not plagued by the crumbling wiring harness issues of the 1980-1987 cars;

2. Of the LH-2.2 vehicles (1985-1988), it has the best fuel injection mixtures programmed into the 554 ECU (which can also be swapped into the 1985-87 cars in place of the 511 or 544);

3. Bulletproof LH-2.2 ECU but any of the 511, 544, or the 554 ECUs from 1985-1988 fall into this category of an super-durable ECU -

4. A minor item, but worth noting: 1988 is the first year that you can grease the U-joints on the driveshaft (after removing the metric Allen set screw and installing a Zerk fitting);

5. Very common in the salvage yards (unlike the 1990 740 which has a lot of unique parts)

6. Improved K-Block engine in most if not all the 1988 and later cars (the first few off the assembly line may have missed it). The original 1985-87 B230 blocks are perfectly capable of long lives but the 1988-1992 K-blocks received a much improved crankshaft with a better thrust bearing, and thicker connecting rods and are known to last over the 500,000 mile range.

7. These Volvo Red Block Engines will run forever when well maintained and when gently driven; this Volvo has never been abused and has always been carefully driven.

8. Included with the "sale of the car" is an extra set of ALL in-dash Relay Switches and an extra BOSCH O2 Mass Air Flow Meter. These items are good to keep around just in case . . .
