     I am the happy owner of a 1982 242 Volvo.  Overall, the the car
has performed very well for me; but I do have a minor complaint. The
linkage running from the windshield-wiper motor to the driver's wiper
is relatively "sloppy" and every so often will make a clanking noise
as the wiper noticeably bounces back and forth.  This happens primarily
during light rain conditions.  It is as if the wiper-blade itself
temporarily sticks and then slips forward again.

     Are there any 240 or 260 series Volvo owners with the same
problem?  I have owned the car now for two years and the wipers
work fine except for the clanking noise.
