Volvo Diesel Manuals and AllData
Personally, I have been unable to locate the green factory manual for the diesel Volvos until some kind soul pointed me to a sounce for mauals, Volvo TechInfo. I had resorted to using a Volkswagen Rabbit Diesel manual and a Volvo 760 manual that just has specifications for the D24T and very little diesel repair info.
If you don't have a manual, use AllData. Many of you are unaware that the same database professional mechanics use is available free of cost to you. Many libraries subscribe to the AllData database. Call your local librarian to find out. AllData is basically a database of all factory repair manuals for all automobiles. This is where I got the information on how to set the cam timing, injection timing, etc. It has the complete procedure as well as relevant pictures. It does not have everything, however. Regardless, it is a wonderful resource. Support your local library! (my sister is a librarian)

I too despaired of ever finding a manual for my non-turbo d24. Did not even know if Volvo bothered to make a manual until i found it on www.scribd.com. Found the maintenance manual, the two-part rebuild, etc.
It's free, though they (quite legitimatedly) want something in return. Official volvo manual in pdf for giving them some documents in return.
