Re: 96R Power steering boils over

Over filling would be a problem. I would monitor it and the system for a while to make sure no seal damage was done.

I can't recall now which power steering pump version it is that had an issue with an internal pipe coming off/loose causing issues.

Re: Which AC compressor to get?

You should replace the drier at the same time. It is not a terrible job, just time. Disconnect the serpentine belt. Being an 850, the alternator is not mounted on the same mounts as the AC compressor. I'm sorry it has been a long time since I did one on an -98 car! I think the compressor can come ou...

Re: 94 T5 - could my timing belt been off a tooth?

You'll notice the difference when it's timed properly. Mine was off a tooth for years also, then when the interval for replacement was up, voila, ran smoother and a bit more peppy.

Re: '99 S70 Base -- Rescue Candidate?

Not only did we rescue this one I watched my daughter drive to work this morning in it 6 years and 30,000 miles later

Most of her coworkers have $400 a month car payments, while Evita just keeps on rolling on a tank of gas a month.

Re: 94 T5 - could my timing belt been off a tooth?

Mine was also off by a bit, I didn't do the last replacement myself but shop said so.
