Have you looked in to replacing the air filter with one from K&N? They offer a lifetime warranty, and since installing one in my '89 245, I've noticed a 1-2mpg jump and greater acceleration.
k&n filters are crap, they don't filter out the fine particles that your stock paper filter will.
Plus the stock paper filters on 240s are more than large enough to allow enough airflow to the engine under stock conditions and then some.
There's a reason Volvo shipped out these cars with the filters they did -- because they're engineered to work specifically to your car. K&N filters aren't.
