Not a Volvo but I refurbished my Harbor Freight Chicago Electric 18 Volt battery pack, which is NLA. Got a Porter Cable PC18B battery pack and scavenged the NiMH cells out of it. Then transferred the NiMH cells to the Chicago Electric case. After you get the (+) (-) leads reversed the Ni-Mh cell pac...

Hold on to it. In the meantime look for a 940 that been parted out. Buy the shell cheap or even better do the guy a favor by getting it out of his yard ... no charge .. and make one out of two.

You can disconnect the Engine bay harness from the rest of the car. Remove the cowl under the Windshield. The connectors are at the left end. The Split Loom Wire Conduit covering the wires can be replaced. Cut the tape on the old and remove. Cut new to length and tape on. It is normal for the Condui...

3M Super 88 is good 0 °F - 220 °F
3M Scotch 35 is good 14 °F - 220 °F and it comes in 10 different colors.

From what I recall. You can get the Cam cover off without removing a Non-VVT gear from the camshaft but a VTT will catch on the head.

Can anyone here explain the science behind say the quick condensation cloud between shifts? The boiling point of a fluid is a function of Temperature and Pressure . You are seeing water in the air flash to a vapor when the pressure in the Intake Manifold goes low. Then back to a liquid when the pre...

Think I may the drop the pan and give everything a good clean and flush. That would be a good idea. There is a reason I ask which came out first. The chocolate milk or Antifreeze? If it was Antifreeze of significant quantity. It means a lot of water got in the crankcase. If the bearings have been s...
