You have to lift the car and look from underneath. There are 2 bolts that go thru the bellhousing and connect to the starter. Locate the starter (on Left Hand drive the starter is on the driver side). The 2 bolts are 19mm. The bottom bolt is easier to get out, the top one will require a long extension on the racthet and perhaps an impact gun. Try to loosen with a breaker bar if you have one.
Begin by removing the positive cable from your 1990 Volvo 240 battery. Remove the cables from the front of the starter motor. Remove the starter motor retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new starter motor.

the only way i could figure out how to get the starter out was to remove the right engine mount
pretty straightforward, disconnect negative battery cable, remove and label wiring from starter, remove bolts from that connect starter to the transmission housing. Replace with new starter, attach mounting bolts, reconnect wiring, and negative battery cable, and ur good to go.
Remove the starter and take it to your local auto parts store for testing.
1. Disconnect the battery negative terminal 2. Disconnect the leads to the Starter Soleniod (the cylindrical thing on top of the starter) 3. Remove bolts attaching the starter to the engine 4. Remove Starter 5. Installation is the reverse of these instructions. Hope this helps...
For the ones on the side you may have to remove the engine mount or starter. For the ones on the back you will have to remove the transmission.For the ones on the side you may have to remove the engine mount or starter. For the ones on the back you will have to remove the transmission.
In general, remove negative cable from battery, remove electrical wires from starter, remove bolts holding starter in place, remove starter. Replace starter in reverse order.
If this is still the same as up to 1986, then you have to remove the left side exhaust, left side crash bar, gear shift, and removable sub frame. Theres your starter. Good luck.
