Carburetor Volvo 240 (1979-84)

Rough idle, poor cold starts or rising fuel consumption on a B21-equipped 240 are often caused by tired gaskets and worn jets in the carburetor. This category gathers the parts needed when rebuilding and fine-tuning the carburetor on model years 1979–84.

The group includes jets and adjusting screws for setting the idle mixture and stroke, plus gaskets and plugs that seal between the carburetor body and the intake. There are also springs, washers, screws and caps that belong to the recurring wear points.

A common check point during a rebuild is the adjusting screws and the gasket set – leaking gaskets cause false air and an idle that is hard to adjust. The parts are gathered for the 240 with the four-cylinder OHC B21-type motor; always check the carburetor's design against your car before replacing parts, as jets and adjustment parts differ between variants.
