The fuel injection systemThe greatest cleanliness must be observed in connection with anywork on the fuel injection system. No dirt must be allowed to get into the system. A Volvo workshop should be allowed to carry out the work on the fuel injection system since it has the necessary equipment for this. Jacking up or hoistening the carIf the car is hoistened with a workshop hoist or jacked up with a work-shop jack, the four jack attachments (two on eich side, see illustration) must be used. They are specially reinforced for this purpose. |
If a workshop jack is used, it can be placed under the rear axle casing or under the front axle member between the front wheels The guard plate under the engine should first be removed when jack- ing up the front end under the front axle. Make sure that the jack is securely positioned so that the car does not slide off it when jacked up Always use jack supports or similar. NOTE! Never place a jack under a steering rod or sump.
