1990 240 Fuel Accumulator
 
I am searching for one of these and not having any luck. I think the Bosch Part Number is 0438170001 and my car is a 1986cc with K-Jetronic fuel injection.
The problem is that the accumulator fitted at present has developed a leak which makes the car unsafe to drive. It sits on a bracket/tray with the fuel pump beneath the vehicle (not in the fuel tank). I think the diaphragm must have perished. I have removed it from the vehicle and am keen to get back on the road as soon as possible.

Thanks.

These are all the same on different makes of cars from the 1980's you might find one from a fuel injection specialist or even the volvo parts department

Thanks Tran. That's very useful to know.

Found one. The official Bosch Data Sheet shows the original as no longer available but lists a substitute and I have managed to track one down.
