Ignition types for 1.4 340s

Post by **shimon340** » 09 Jan 2006 10:45 pm

Hi guys...

Was wondering if anyone could help with some info

340 1.4 breaker ignitions

Seems there are four types fitted but does anyone know what years they were used?

There is AC Delco, Ducellier, Bosch and SEV

SEV uses a casette points - only dwell angle can be adjusted.

AC Delco, Ducellier and Bosch use conventional breaker points

Im trying to compile a parts sharing list for volvo 66 and volvo 340 with other cars ( including ignition and brakes )

seems the AC Delco is shared with Opel and vauxhall models.

For cars with the Renix ignition... what type of distributor cap and rotor should be used??

Anyone know what years volvo used the different ignition systems?

Anyone know what other cars use these same parts?

cheers guys!

Shimon

these are Quinton Hazel parts

Volvo 340 1.4 Delco 1979-1983

Contact set - XCS121
Condensor - XCON78
Distributor cap - XD82
Rotor arm - XR103
Ignition coil - XIC8029

Volvo 340 1.4 Ducellier 1976-1978
Contact set – XCS90
Condensor – XCON79
Distributor cap – XD314
Rotor arm – XR104
Ignition coil –XIC8029

Volvo 340 1.4 Ducellier 1978- 1983
Contact set – XCS90
Condensor – XCON79
Distributor cap –XD140
Rotor arm – XR104

Volvo 340 1.4 Ducellier 1983 onwards ( Renix )
Ignition module – XEI4
Condensor – N/A
Distributor cap – XD141
Rotor arm – XR160
Ignition coil –XIC 8076

Not sure why its lists ignition module and coil… unless module refers to the control unit mounted on the wing and ignition coil refers to the actual renix unit on the inner wing

Volvo 340 1.4 SEV 1979-1983
Contact set – XCS149
Condensor – XCON123
Distributor cap – XD125
Rotor arm – XR77
Ignition coil – XIC8029

Volvo 340 1.7 B172

Ignition module – XE14
Condensor – n/a
Distributor cap – XD158
Rotor arm – XR159
Ignition coil –XIC8076

Lists the ignition module and ignition coil as the same for a 1.4 and 1.7…. odd!
