'Le Shitbox' 1985 Volvo 360 2.0 GLE

Post by Alexdepalex » 12 Mar 2025 07:13 pm

Hey I'm back!

I quit facebook a couple of weeks ago, which really grinds my gears, because information isn't really readily available and / or it's hard to find.
I actually missed the old forums!
One thing that does make facebook easy, is the fact that dropping pictures is easily done. Here on the other hand, I gotta check a topic about that. And probably refresh my old Photobucket account.

Well, let's talk about my old project. A 360 GLE '85. Which is a handful of work.
Rotten, not pretty, busted and tired.
But I will try to get it back on the road. Eventually.

It has an injection and I have zero to none understanding for that. I only use carburators, so far.

A lot of work, this is only a tiny piece.

Was wondering if people were able to fix the MAF of these cars, I have I thought; 0280202034.

Welcome back... the forums are great, a far better format for information but annoyingly Facebook has all the users...!

Doesn't look too bad, a Mk2 GLEi injection is quite a rare thing! I'm sure there are companies that would refurb the MAF... Peugeot 205/309 GTI and some BMW's also used the same style of flappy paddle meter so would have a search if there are any specialists.
