Cold starting an old Volvo 360 (1989)

My dear Volvo 360 with B200K carburator engine, has been sitting still for the past winter. Time to fire up the old bugger so it wont freeze up completely before spring! The temperature is ~-15 degrees celcius, no pre-heating.

Meikäläisen Volvo 360 B200K kaasarikoneella talvisäilössä hankien keskellä. Muutaman kerran talvessa ajan koneen lämpimäksi (paikallaan tällä kertaa) ettei paikat kangistu ja voitelu pelaa keväälläkin. Pakkasta on viitisentoista astetta, moottoria ei lämmitetty ennalta.

I was searching B200K for my 240 and now its seems they are in 360 also! Excellent :) What fuel efficiency were you getting from this car? The book says 7 lph for 240 but I don't think I get that somehow...

@haukikalastaja

Once when I drove roughly a 150 km trip, trying to drive as fuel efficiently as possible, I managed to reach 7,3 litres / 100 km's. Otherwise it would range from little over 8 litres to 9 litres. But I know for a fact, that it's possible to reach over 15 l/100km. You just need a little snow and lots of stupidity (RWD FTW).

@jorgexportugal

Haha, unfortunately no, since I already sold the Volvo.

Norwegian or Swedish

[jeesjees2]

Neither, it's in finnish. Not too far since they are neighbouring countries.

Jag talar lite svenska också. :P

Great video.

@jeesjees2 Thanks for the fuel figures, that is encouraging! I will try not to do much drifting but my studs are poor so it is inevitable! Thanks again!
