1997 965 for sale with a pin hole headgasket leak

Afternoon all! There is a pinhole leak in my headgasket. No oil/coolant mixing, no trail of white smoke, just a rough idle smoothing out over 2000 rpm with the engine functioning very well besides burning coolant. I do not have a garage any more to install this myself so am looking to sell Posting h...

Re: 1996 Volvo 960 Air Conditioning Problems

Re: Help with driver's door lock please - 1997 Volvo 960

Ok guys (gals?) picked up the parts at Hamilton Corners garage/Volvo graveyard and have been photo-documenting the process (if you do find some used handles of a different colour than your vehicle - rejoyce! the inner mechanism is removable). Should have the whole thing up and done tonight..
