It looks like the one I'm using now. I had posted the part number of the one I have on the old .com forum and now I don't have that info. I cleaned and painted mine flat black.

I found my new one was so much better than the OEM units. It runs so linear and draws half the current. Only draw back is it's just a little slower movement.

I found the info on the idle motor I'm using from my Ebay archive.

1983-92 Volvo 240 740 ICV Idle Control Valve 0280140520

I'm running it without any bracket attached to the engine. This motor is much smaller and lighter so I guess that will not cause any problem.

I'm also running this one with no issues. I don't think you can use the original bracket to attach it, I'm also running without a bracket but its plenty secured by the piping.

Martin Gutowski has sourced for the support bracket that fits it. It looks just like the old one but smaller diameter. I can't quite tell from the blurry picture, does it have the 3 pin connection?
