Not sure if this helps, but I kind of have the same issue. I actually thought that oil was dripping out somewhere, but found that my coolant was leaking in the same place. I have an S70 Turbo, and the leak seems to be the connecting hose from the back of the engine. It is dripping on the large metal...

Sorry for the late post here, guys. I found out that it was just crystalized sugar. The stuff I had pulled out a month or so ago had actually melted in the container I put it in. I eventually just bought a stainless steel shop vac and just sucked it all out of my tank. That seemed to have fixed my i...

How long have you had this car? I bought it used in September 2009. Never had any issues like this ever. I think I figured out what happened. Some miscreant put sugar or some other junk in my tank here at work. I work on a college campus and for a while I have had no gas door on because it got ripp...

Okay, I finally got all that crap out of my gas tank! I actually managed to shove my whole hand in there and just pull it all out. I will have to take pictures and post them a little later.

abscate: I will have to send you some of this just to see what it is!

I finally managed to install my components in the front and have to get a bandpass crossover for the 2" midranges in the dash. The 8" in the rear deck mounted in the factory brackets, but since the magnets were bigger, I had to cut the bottom off of them. The amp is installed under the rea...

I'm not familiar with the gas tank on a GLT but if doable, I'd pull it out and have it professionally flushed clean. Something's really not right there. A long shot, but do you always get gas at the same place? I'm wondering if maybe you got a load from the bottom of their tank. For a time, try a n...

Pull some and put in a Baggie and send to me. I have access to a complete lab including most every analytical instrument known to humankind. PM me for address I think I might be able to open it up again this weekend so I can get that junk out. I don't know if I'll be able to maneuver it around the ...

After fixing the problem last week, on Tuesday, the pump got more "sediment" or whatever sucked into it. I took it out to clean it off and to see if I couldn't get the remnants out of the bottom. Well, I took a light and shown it down around the tank and found some scary results: http://ww...

...New Iridium spark plugs put in about 3 months ago. Take them out as soon as you can.These cars doesn't like them.They will not work properly in these cars.It is a miracle that they are working properly for now,but it doesn't mean it will last. Put in OEM Volvo spark plugs (the pack of five) or j...

Well, after changing the fuel pump, the relay and the filter (just really thinking the pump needed to be changed), my car is acting normal again! Basically, it WASN'T my catalytic converter, which sounded off to me in the first place, so I'm glad I didn't go that route and try and get that replaced....
