Sorry to ear about that. I got a used spare but I never checked yet if it's any good...
I think I saw something on the green books about how to test it but need to recheck...
If you need I'll send you the url for them...

Time for some photos... My 92€ delivered welder. My Automatic welder mask with some spare lenses... Fully eletronic adjustable... This is my makeshift doors suport so I can do some welding... The first repair with the new welder, as you can see it's not perfect but it is strong now as there was a hole and patched with bondo. The 2nd try is way better... Now it's only missing this small 2mm gap and another patch just like this one. There was a hole and a missing securing nut in the back to bolt the support for the rear bumper. Made the new metal plate, found a nut, made a hole for the bolt and welded all in place. Not the best photos but I'll take another when making the last piece of welding on the car, hopefully... The state of the front still looks like an 164 Volvo ...hehehehe Won these but they don't fit my car just the 69 to 71 ones if anyone is interested just let me now...

Just got my automatic welding mask and it's awesome... Tommorow I'll start with some photos and other things...
Just waiting for the ear protectors as I already have a radiator fan from a B14EE from a Volvo 360 to do the ventim in my small welding space...
Need to finish the doors and rear panel to finish the ehxaust next as it needs some finishing touches...

Just another small update... My brother bought a MIG welder the other day and since it came to my home I started to do some tin repairs just to test and learn. Now I started patching the doors on the Volvo and the back end where the bumper secures. Now i'm almost done but I'm waiting for a new welding helmet and to buy some sheet of metal to finish the job... Yesterday I won a pair of new brake discs for it at 26€ delivered.
It's time to finish it... as so the other Volvo 164 around here....

Mine is taking a bit to repair the tin worm and it wont be perfect but it will end so much better than the other ones because everything metal will be srtipped and repainted...
Would love one of those but mine is better... hehehe
Keep up with it...

They could be thirsty but with a LGP kit installed the price of fuel becomes more than half...

Not to hijack the thread but try some carb cleaner and put them, full of it, in the upright position for a day and them try firing them not with 3 Volts but the all 12V. I've cleaned some that way but not any ''old'' ones like the Volvo 164. If the car doesn't have a resistor pack for the injectors, like the Mitsubishi Evolution has, then they are good to test that way.

Another small update. Front lights, fog lights, turning signals and tail lights all cleaned, repaired, painted and all assembled and ready to be installed on the car. Eletricly wise its only missing the front lights loom and the upgrades like security system, remote door locks and the stereo but that will be after its ready to hit the road...

Finally a bit of an update in form of some photos... The tripple Solex 44PAI are ready for fitting in the future time, completely rebuilt with new gaskets... Nothing else been done lately as the wheather isn't helping... or the motivation for it...
