Problem solved!! The rear leveling sensor is attached to the car by a single rivit. Then from the sensor there is a metal rod connecting the senso to the control arm.

I have been searching the Internet like crazy, unable to find much information on this self leveling headlight system. I have located the rear leveling sensor on the drivers side rear suspension.

Something about Maff below threshold I believe..

It's alive! Got the motor in the hole and the engine running! Sounds healthy and runs smooth so far. I had the engine running atleast 6 times, once for about 20 mins to get everything up to temp. No check engine light so far! I still need to add oil to the transmission and put the front tires back o...

Got a couple hours in last night, transmission/torque converter are now bolted to the engine.. Which was a bit friggy I might add. The bad motor had a new timing belt tensioner and idler pulley installed at a Volvo dealer last year, and deffinently looked newer then the timing belt on the donor engi...
