Re: 2000 V70 XC has not been started in 3 years

So I got the parts car yesterday and got everything swapped over to my car. Started like a dream, then I noticed the coolant dumping out the back (firewall side) of the motor. Blown head gasket. My assumption is that after the impact with the deer the car was driven about 15 miles with no coolant. r...

If it's a '98 or a '99, there
will be some differences.
Yep, it's a 2000. Even the same color so the hood and fender will match.

Re: 2000 V70 XC has not been started in 3 years

I figured I'd give you an update on this project since you all were kind enough to give me some suggestions on how to address it. First off, whoever suggested that I use a come a long and not mess with trying to start it when I picked up is a genius. I owe you a beer! The inter cooler was cracked ri...

Re: 2000 V70 XC has not been started in 3 years

I agree, maybe just pulling it up with a come-along is the answer. I have a 20' equipment trailer with ramps so it should be easy enough to drag it up there and worry about all the work it needs when I have it in my shop.

Re: 2000 V70 XC has not been started in 3 years

Also the tires on this one were dry rotted and flat, I was able to pump them up with some fix a flat long enough to get on the trailer. Thanks for the responses! I'll track down a wiring diagram and location for the fuel pump relay. Did you just run a jumper wire from the positive battery terminal ...

2000 V70 XC has not been started in 3 years

I am picking up this car from a family member who hit a deer in the car 3 years ago this month. They were holding out some hope of fixing it but it never happened, they are buying a new car. They purchased it new and it now has 150,000 miles on it. My plan is to replace the hood, fender, grille, lig...

keyless entry problem

My 95 850 is having the following problem. When I hit the unlock button everything unlocks except the tailgate. When I try to lock it from the remote nothing happens. If I unlock the tailgate with the key (so all 5 doors are now unlocked) the lock button works. To make it even stranger, it only seem...
