Fuel pressure damper is made by Pierburg and it is discontinued from Pierburg...and if i remember correctly...discontinued from Volvo too. I replaced mine few years ago with part from junkyard because it was leaking intermitently and had ocassionally fuel smell in the cabin. Here is the part#: IMG_2...

Re: Pierburg pulsation damper on fuel injector rail Volvo 855 GLT 1997

This setup is for M4.4 cars.
Damper on fuel rail instead of FPR and FPR is a lot smaller and it's moved at rear ...in fuel filter area.
S,v70 with M4.4 have the same setup.

Re: Help troubleshooting coolant temp and codes

The thermostat could be stuck open. I would replace it. Be careful of the bolts on the thermostat housing, they strip easily and can be difficult to remove.

Re: Help troubleshooting coolant temp and codes

AEG totally right about those bolts. Make sure they are clean and little tap "star" bit to "shake" the old bolt.

Re: Help troubleshooting coolant temp and codes

I would have gotten that wrong too. Everything pointed to a bad thermostat. Bad wiring is tougher to diagnose when it is just adding resistance vs an open, or a short

Re: 850 Heater Core PSA: potential for catastrophic coolant loss

Here’s a picture of early heater core seep on one of my 1999s, found during a hvac evaporator R/R I might have added 100 ml coolant every 6 months to this car? I think it is dated 2014 and we’ve added about 80k miles to that, estimated. I didn’t notice that the Al frame is lifted where it is seeping...

Poor quality valves

I ordered two replacement exhaust valves from FCP for the '96 turbo. Paid top price for the OE brand (AE). This is what I got. Not only do they not look anything like the stock valves with this deep dish, but even this old woodworkers eyes can see a major offset or lack of centering. I honestly woul...

Stripped AC drier threads taking hose 9171319 off

Had to put torch to it and a lot of muscle like others, but it finally came off stripping the old threads.
Now hose won't thread on new drier.
Any options other than buying new hose?

Re: Stripped AC drier threads taking hose off

There is a link in that thread about pushing 24 inches of socket extension from the left side of the engine ( driver side) and getting the internal m6 but firm;y into the screw that holds the suction line in. It’s tight but doable. If the internal hex strips, go to an external fluted screw extractor...
