Switched mine around 120,000+ plus, same thing with mobile1. M1 kind of in itself acts like a solvent and slowly dissolves built up deposits. The first time I used it, my car's oil was getting really black around 1000 miles and consumed a quart for the remainder of the interval.
Now, I can easily ...

Re: First Time PCV now P0505
I am no longer experiencing the P0505 problem, *update - sorry for taking so long.
Some Observations.
1. Idle Droop was more profound in warm weather, worse with AC on.
2. Sunoco 93 Ultra Gas made P0505 go away but only when I was using it. Premium idle droop was apparent but P0505 never came on ...

Re: Well, crap. Blinking arrow of doom.
The 4 Gear 42LE in our cars is tough as nails. I was about to ask if you were planning to sell your Volvo, from what the codes said in an earlier Post it sounds more electrical then mechanical. I would bet the "Open Circuit" refers to a toasted coil in a shift solenoid or something.

Re: Correct stop-leak for steering fluid?
Had this exact same problem on my 98 S70, the fluid was seeping from the rack seals.
Was not ready to pay major bucks for a new one.
At the local autoparts store I asked about about stop-leak products, an Old Timer told me to use this: ATP RE-Seal (AT205) He said that some of the other bands that ...

Re: lpt on a 96 na motor
I own a 2.4NA 98 s70 and have felt the need to turbo more then once; We all feel your pain.
I Do not think it is a bad idea, it just that it's in uncharted territory, your build will be expensive, will feature many surprises both good and bad.
Now dude, Your probably not gonna get more then 200 whp ...

Re: Lopey idle
I had a problem like this that appeared after performing a tune-up. But it did not go away and I would get sporadic Check Engine with a P0505.

Re: First Time PCV now P0505
Thank You for all the useful information.
For my propane test, I used some old tubing hooked up to an old camping stove regulator so I could stick the hose everywhere and down by the pcv trap, nothing though. I am starting to wonder if this is even a vacuum leak. I did clean the IAC valve and its ...

Re: First Time PCV now P0505
Thanks for your response!
The small vacuum line on the passenger side of the manifold was very difficult to get on. I managed to get it about half way on before declaring it "good enough". I will see if putting a hose clamp over it and resting the code makes a difference.
I wish it was something ...

First Time PCV now P0505
Hey Guys! Ive been driving a 98 S70 NA with about 168,000 miles. It was a hand-me-down from my parents, so naturally after falling in love with the car (The 2 DC snow storms were no match!), I've been cleaning it and tuning it up as much as possible. I was inspired to replace the PCV/Flametrap after ...
