Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

In the past I have been off by a tooth or two on a timing belt change and I used an old plastic credit card fed in between the belt and a cam gear. Then just rotate the cam gear to the desired position and it's perfect.

Re: 96 850 Turbo: Codes P0302 P1310 - problem ONLY during idle

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

Fun fact: I've owned my '96 855 since 2006 and have never changed the brake pads. Every time I check them there is still at least 50% life. I will only buy oem when I eventually change them.

There is plenty of clearance as the transponder is at the bottom. After that I kept widdling plastic...
