Re: volvo 4 cylinder,is it worth it? Volvo engine and drives a from this time frame are well design and have a very long life. Volvo does stock parts (some times in European warehouses) and the cost is very high when compared to Merc. I have seen Volvo take three weeks to ship items from there warehouses.
There is some aftermarket parts for very common items, but many items are supplied by Volvo only. If you buy this boat, just make sure you are willing to spend $1,000 to $2,000 for repairs that cost only $500 to $1,000 for Merc. Re: volvo 4 cylinder,is it worth it? Many used parts are available as well. And parts from the different models are, for the most part, interchangeable. If you don't mind tinkering, and spending extra time looking for parts, then these drives are fine. Just listen to the warnings from those above, it's just like anything that's out of production.
Ford ranger parts for sale. Parts are a little more difficult to find and some Volvo shops don't want to work on them. Gaskets, seals, and most maintenance parts are still readily available from Volvo. Quite a few of us still have these drives so there's plenty of 'rookie mistakes' to learn from as well as advice from the experienced mechanics. It just depends how much maintenance and repair work you're willing to learn and do yourself. But don't kid yourself either, you can't change that it's 20 to 30 years old and you're not gaining anything for resale value - only the value of your use and enjoyment.
Re: volvo 4 cylinder,is it worth it? The outdrive is designed for 3 times the hp that 4 banger will put out.
Unlike the mercruisers. The upper gears are all the same for all hp, and most will swap with any 200 series drive. I had a aq151 4 cylinder volvo and I loved it.

It always started and ran really smooth. The wot was 5200 on mine, so it really got up and moved. Sometimes I wish I still had it. If you buy the boat, you can get most parts on ebay for decent price. Otherwise find a local dealer. Re: volvo 4 cylinder,is it worth it? Actually the aq151 4 and the rubber band 6 motors were produced by Volvo automotive and marinized by volvo penta.
Ford bought volvo automotive and discontinued sales of engines to volvo penta. Volvo penta,for the US,then became Volvo north america and used some Ford engines for about 2 years,3 or so if you count the joint venture, then went to GM based only for the US market. Ford withdrew from the US marine market about 1995 and left a lot of marinizers hanging.
Thats why the good old rubber band motors dissapeared like the Dinosaurs. Other than the irritating exhaust port issue they actually were not bad engines for what they did. Here in the salt pond they did get irritating to change circ pumps and manifolds though.

Assuming you have followed the steps we recommended to winterize your vessel (in addition to any the manufacturer specifies) and the unit has been properly stored, a minimum amount of work should be required to prepare it for use.
After performing the spring commissioning and testing the boat on the water, it is a good idea to perform a full tune-up. Remember, you are relying on your engine to get you where you want to go. Treat it good now and it will treat you good later. SPRING COMMISSIONING CHECKLIST The following steps outline a logical sequence of tasks to be performed before starting your engine for the first time in a new season. Pick up the checklist you made to remind yourself of just what maintenance needs to be done prior to starting the engine in the spring.
You did remember to write yourself a checklist.right?. INSTALL THE DRAIN PLUG IF REMOVED!.
Volvo 4 Cylinder Marine Engine
Remove the cover placed over the engine last winter. Unseal any engine openings (air inlet, breathers, exhaust) previously sealed. Replace all zincs. If you took our advice, you removed the battery for the winter. While it was in storage, you should have kept it fully charged, it should be ready to go.
So install the battery and connect the battery cables. Treat battery and cable terminals with petroleum jelly, silicone grease, or a heavyduty corrosion inhibitor. Capacity test the batteries. Tighten the alternator and other belts. As you did in the winter, inspect all hoses for signs of softening, cracking or bulging, especially those routinely exposed to high heat. Check hose clamps for tightness and corrosion.
Ensure the exhaust manifolds are tight. On closed system engines, check the condition of the coolant mixture with a coolant tester and adjust the mixture by adding antifreeze or water.
Step-by-step illustrated keyed procedures guide you through every conceivable job possible, including all adjustments necessary. Perfect for do-it-yourselfers, professional mechanics, or students.
