What year 240 did the engine come from?

Also, I'm puzzled as to why you went to an engine that was 300cc smaller than the original--were you trying for better fuel economy?

Hi, the engine is B200E it's new engine from Volvo Goeteborg company. But I've put the used Solex Cisac carb form B200K-1985 Volvo 240. The ignition is from B19 or another older engine, I don't remember.

I've put smaller engine,because I can buy the new B200 with 0 km, it's new one, the price is $300!!! So I've buy it,put the mechnaical ignition,put the Solex carb (I hate electronics equipment in engines,so B230F is not for me:)) )., ant put out the old B230F (500 000 km), and all electrical equipment. But I don't know what degrees of ignition I've to set (7, 12, 15,

18 ??? ).
