Some free things to do (maybe you've already done these)
- Inspect every inch of vacuum lines, also listening for sounds of leakage.
- As mentioned previously, clean the cap and rotor contacts with emory cloth or similar, or scrape carefully down to clean metal.
- See if you can locate broken ...

Will a fuel filler neck assembly from a 97 850 work on a 98 v70?

1. Be sure your timing belt marks are spot on. Mine was 'detuned' for nearly 6yrs when indy mis-installed it 2 teeth off and turned it into a dog. Tooks years to make the connection.

Done. Before I set the new motor in place I notice they weren't spot on. They are now


2. If it's very hot ...

The only "electrical" i could think of is underpowering the coil or something like that but I realize that's a reach. It was running fine before trans drop #2.

I will check the shift cable. I was very careful to mark exactly where the bracket was bolted but I hadn't thought of that thanks.

Much ...

Can’t figure out what’s going on. Starts and idles just fine. Drives and shifts fine. But there’s just no real power until about 3000rpm.

A while back I posted my saga of lower engine noise, and decided to swap in a lower mileage motor instead of trying to rebuild. Got it all back together and ...

I just shipped 2200 pounds from AUSTRIA to NYC for under 3 bucks per pound, in 2 days, point to point

Wouldn't that be UPS water?

What really gets me is that I didn’t even think to do those seals when I had the damn thing off the motor. Rookie mistake.

I did see that, after I purchased something called blue devil, which got far more good reviews than bad. The website says it takes 100-200 miles for it to start working, so today I took it for a nice drive in the country, and probably had to add 2 qts in the 65 miles I drove. It’s getting sling on ...

Well I’d be curious to know if you feel like going to the work of measuring and the details of figuring out shipping. If not I understand. Around here there aren’t many decent parts cars let alone nice door cards.

I shudder to think what shipping would be, but I would love those front door inner panels. Any chance shipping is free to 29414 :D


I can certainly look into it. Shipping could be free for the right price😄

lol I figured. Sometimes a guy gets lucky with a seller who can abuse his UPS label ...
