I don't think so. . . a lot of people try to list their for sale Volvos as having a "type R" engine or being a "type R" to generate interest and higher price from the folks that are into the type R Honda performance community. No winter package (headlight wipers), stock front spo...

Was the fuel filter also changed when you replaced the fuel pump relay?

It sounds like someone is conspiring with the autozone guy to make money off unsuspecting customers (maybe to pay off the cost of his OBD reader :? ). In this same area (Pinole is across the bay from San Francisco) last year, someone was advertising for a while on craigslist that they would run OBD ...

The reset by pushing the pin (behind the rubber plug) on the dash display seems to be only available for 1995 and maybe some early '96 850 models that have the Yazaki instrument clusters.
