Re: Intermittent low knocking from engine bay, heard when hot and at idle - s70 NA Manual

AC compressor clutch. Try cycling AC button when noise is prese[not to see \if it changes

YOur harmonic balancer or crankshaft pulley could be loose. You can usually track down a noise to wtin a cm or so using a hose as a stethoscope

The sound does remind me of my bad AC clutch

Re: 98 v70 to 98 v90 steering wheel swap?

Definitely start with spline count. If that’s different your swap ends there

You might be able to see if the steering shaft is a common part on Volvo OEM , drilling down on the steering wheel section and comparing part numbers.

Then do the same for the airbag and connector

Re: 1998 V70 T5; problem hot starting & occasional brief power loss at speed

If it fires in ether, and the injectors are delivering fuel, the fuel delivery amount is wrong. I think you need an oscilloscope to confirm the injector pulse ( more accurately , how long the ECU isnpulling the injectors to ground An ECU swap is the Mossberg method if you can’t get a scope , but you...

Re: Herman and Operation 30MPG

What a great thread. I just found it this morning and spent most of it ignoring the kids while I caught up on The Herman Chronicles. Abscate, have you tried the Lesjöfors HD springs? I put them on the Silver Bullet (‘00 V70 n/a MT) and absolutely love them. When I return the engine bar, we should s...
