Wow, glad you got lucky on that one!

If you are in a junkyard and there are P80 AWD cars there, please try to remove these from the rear parking brake cables by the rear dust shield. They can be removed with some penetrating oil and a large screwdriver behind the outer lip on the rear as (not) seen in the pictures as you are looking at...

The radiator included the water, oil and transmission fluid (only for automatic transmissions). The Intercooler for the charged air was mounted in front of the radiator (between the radiator and the AC condenser). The large charged air pipe runs from the turbo to the intercooler and from the interco...

To anyone reading this, the problem is back again as the weather cools, I tried using a liqui moly lifter repair additive on my most recent oil change, which didn't solve the problem. RobertDIY has a video showing that pre 96 lifters are an inferior design, I might go through with pulling the cam c...

In this section back in August there was a point raised about the use of anti-seize on lug bolts or not. I mentioned that I have used anti-seize on lugbolts/nuts for over 30 years with no issues so far! I also mentioned that I had extreme difficult getting the lugbolts off the V70 NA I work on from ...

For me engine flush additive did the most, and I just used the cheapest brand I found. (Mannol) Wouldn't focus on any special brand (just my opinion) .

Valves are Na filled on the turbo head, not Na filled on the NA.

Na fill is N/A on the NA.

Have to disagree, looks like engine oil, but until you can check and see we will all be waiting on tender hooks!

Hello Queen City, great place!

First place to look on an 850 is the distributor rotor , cap, plug wires, and plugs. Ignition parts life runs 100k mile on these cars so they get neglected.

Fuel injection and ECU failures are 1;5000 type events in comparison.
