Bosch Fuel Injection Pump

Re: 1984 Volvo Diesel Does the Bosch Injection Pump have a threaded opening for installing a Bosch timing light? If so where is it? Consstantine

P.S. Thanks in advance. Constantine

Bosch pump 

I don't know if the pump can be set using a timing light. The manual gives instructions for use of a dial guage and holder 5194. These tools are available from ebay sellers for about $60. If you've not got a volvo manual you can access one at k-jet.org. Have a look at volvoturbodiesel.blogspot.com as well for pointers on just about anything to do with a 740TD. There are people in the US who will rebuild your pump with new seals and extra power for about 700$ should you so desire. john

Thanks for your reply. I have a Volvo Diesel (a DK version), which is a non-turbo 240 series. I am in the Philadelphia area and know of a very good diesel repair shop ( they rebuilt the ip for a MB 350 SDL) with good results in that price range. I'll examine the matter further.
