Now then, in that particular '99 S80, if the gearbox is 5-speed (AW55-50/51SN), it doesn't have an oil filter. Depending on the quality of ATF flushing job, there may still some old stuff left in the area of torque converter, my mechanic says, and that area is somewhat difficult to clean (?) Just to...

Here is a round-up to my excersise with the lock, may be useful as a temp fix for the original problem with V70 (key doesn't go past pos. I). As mom explained in his description - see link above,- there is a cast alloy bit on sliders in the lock between the cylinder and the switch. It pulls the stee...

Arrrgh!!! Cracked now... I did find some previous topics and Lee's pointing to volvospeed site regarding the lock removal. Thanks BEJinFbk for that info regarding the cable - I take it that you can remove it from the connector in the lock while the key is in pos. I I also found about the chip reader...

Be it coal or wood, what combustible gasses after burning that fuel?
Surely, there are some carbon hydrates if the temperature is right, but powering a truck from it...

I mistakenly posted a link which is for the electronics. One may find useful a compendium of 1800 pages on free energy by Patrick J Kelly at http://www.free-energy-info.co.uk/PJKbook.html http://www.free-energy-info.co.uk/PJKbook.pdf There is a number of designs for Hydrogen-On-Demand in cars in Cha...

Hi everyone Any results to share from the time of the last posting? I bought a 99 S80 2.4 petrol with 128000 miles on the clock, just passed all tests including emission.
