So the hesitating at idle and during acceleration goes away with the MAF unplugged? That suggests bad MAF, or sometimes a poor connection in the MAF connector. You can drive it around for a couple days or a week with the MAF unplugged, by the way, until you sort this out. It will run rich but no oth...

I thought of a tip today to make it more comfortable to work down low on the front of V70 engines. The steel radiator support has an edge on the back side that is always cutting into your arms. This is particularly hard when the fan is removed. I realized a length of split hose or wire loom would ma...

I will take some pics. I jb welded it. The door fits in a bushing and the bushing moves up and down allowing it to leave a gap. I got the bushing to stop moving so now just the door moves. No more up and down. Just open and close. Uhhh... sounds to me like you're setting yourself up for boost issue...

Be sure to...

If june see this, there will be one in Florida soon. I've seen it! But already knew they existed. Call me morbid, but the hearse version in T6, would be the ultimate Volvo wagon. The UN in New York still uses a fleet of 1st generation S80 factory armored vehicles as the secondary fleet. Newer armor...

Yeah, I wouldn’t mind! I’ll pull it out tomorrow and take some pics.

Here are some pics of the catalog... it's late 90s it turns out! Fall '98 to winter '99 to be exact. Pretty cool to see the stuff that iPd carried the year I was born... now here I am with a collection of Volvos! I didn't take a picture of every page (left out some less interesting stuff... order fo...
