  • Vintage Volvo R-Sport turbo parts for B19/20/21/23AT

It's part of a hot start kit, it's also supposed to include a solenoid. When the car is off, the solenoid blocks the fuel bowl vent to prevent hard starting/vapourlock.

I have a broken one, tbh I don't think you need it, if you're doing a hot start just open the throttle a bit

Guess you're right.

What do you think about Pierburg 175 CD turbo carb instead of turbo Stromberg 175 CD?

If you are in Europe look to the Dutch forums as lots of Volvo there in the past. Of course the Scandinavian peeps may be of help. Not sure if USA had this , try Turbobricks forum , someone over there may have made up a similar kit or have what would do to replicate it as it's such a big market.

Do I need volvo turbo distributor for B21AT setup?

Now I have volvo 242 GT distributor.

The R-Sport dizzy has boost retard.

You used to be able to buy generic vacuum advance/boost retard units to adapt to your distributor, but no idea if they are still available. Some early factory turbo cars had them (Exa, Cordia, IIRC) - you could probably adapt one of them if you can find one.

Maybe B21ET or B21FT distributors would fit?

I subbed it out for a 123/TUNE, didn't want to mess around with the original dizzy as it was in rough shape and the mechanical advance/retard functions are rudimentary at best.

Got it!

Thanks.

I used to have a number of these parts.

Sold them to enthusiasts. I imported a B21ET ign dist from Sweden.

Only B21ET/FT genuine part I have left is the oil cooler adapter plate and longer threaded rod to suit (in pic next to oil filter. Plus matching Pirtec hoses and fittings into 740T oil cooler. - It’s Available

I still use the T25 turbo exhaust manifold. (Garrett).

Spac in Yass also had one and sold the manifold and Garrett turbo a few years ago.

This one. I have a 96% complete R-Sport turbo kit
