Replaced the headlight lenses with OE units. Installed LED Conversion (from amazon) in headlights. Not too bad for $30! Aimed the headlights. Replaced the turn signal lenses with clear units from IPD. Did some touch up work on a few paint scuffs. Installed a GPS Speedometer because I'm currently too...

Still available? I'm actually just up the road from you in Morganton, NC (close to Hickory).

The hesitation seems more air/fuel/timing related. The car goes forward, its just kinda stumbles until the RPMs pick up. I did change the plugs with some NGK 7092's yesterday and that seemed to help a small amount. I'm in the process of ordering everything for a stage-0 as well as a mechanical boost...

So I'm an Idiot. The car has a production date of 2/97 so I'm guessing that makes it a '98 model year. I am familiar with PCV systems and their operation. The car has a well documented service history but just turned 300k. I'm gonna go ahead and do a full PCV Service just to make sure everything is ...

Well, the car has a brand new starter and battery. The alternator was replaced 2 years ago with a genuine Volvo unit. I come from the land of Datsun S-30 Z cars where vacuum lines are minimal so pardon my underestimating the importance of them in a stage-0.

Vacuum lines are on my lengthy list of things to replace. I've already resolved one leak but judging by the condition of the hoses I'm sure there are more. I'll move that to the top of the list and order a silicone vacuum line kit. It's not nearly as noticeable if you smash the throttle from a dead ...

So I recently acquired a 1998 V70 T5 for dirt cheap. While this isn't my first Volvo, having owned a 1988 760GLE as my first car, it is my first foray into the Turbo Volvo world. I'm currently balls beep in completing a thorough stage-0, but have a few issues that I would like to investigate. Firstl...

Bingo! If I'd have looked a bit more carefully at the vacuum tree I would have found it. I've got about 5 projects going on at once on this car so I've been kinda scatterbrained.

So I recently acquired a 1999 V70 T5 from a buddy for $300. It's a high mileage car but seems to have been looked after fairly well. I was under hood replacing the starter and noticed this little hose and what appears to be either a filter or some kind of check valve just lying on the fan shroud. Ca...
