Re: High NOx fails emissions but no codes - 1997 850 R

I will guess you ran a bit richer on test2.

Note that you lifted HC from less than half spec to 3/4 spec

That lowered combustion temps which plummets NOx

Your cat cleaned up the HC so you still passed

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

Drove back from EWR with my driver window stuck down on the T5. Gotta fix that janky wiring on the switch.

I melted the plug a bit when my switch went bad. Springtime.

Evita really hard cold start. My guess ECT is off and poorly metering cold fuel. Will check ohms today and replace if needed

You can tell it isn’t a Swiss junkyard, all the cars would be centered in the spaces and the hood lined up

Re: 1999 s70 awd no heat [low coolant] [map of ECC damper positions]

I really hope I haven’t torched this engine. On the plus side, no question I would redo the head if I warped it, it’s a beautiful 99,000 mile runner which Abby will take over when Evita dies….in 2036

Classified - MVS Scam protection - warning FEB 2026

We recently had a poster scammed of 100 EU on a parts sale by someone registering here, arranging to buy a part, taking payment, and vanishing. For now, I would suggest that one not respond to PM requests to close deals but make posts public, verify IP (we can help with that) or just buy from people...
