Re: 98 V70 AWD Fuel Filter Change

Wow I too took off the first access cover and didn't see the second one. Wrestled with it for a while trying to figure out how in the heck I would get the front line off the filter. Decided to come research and found your description. Thanks a lot for taking the time to write it up. This site and ...

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

BTW your tutorial with pics is awesome. Thanks a ton for taking the time! I am taking this sucker in to the mechanic with my tail between my legs. Will let you know what it was. I am sure I left something undone or something.

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

Turbo hoses are good. I didn't unplug the TPS. Just went and double-checked in case it came undone but it is plugged in. Thanks for trying to help jblackburn, I appreciate it!

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

I don't think so, I just went and looked. I felt all around the connection between the manifold and block and I think I have a good seal. Also haven't had any fuel smell which it seems like I would if I didn't have a good seal.

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

Update on my situation. I have checked the IAC valve. It was pretty clean but I hit it with carb cleaner anyway. Rechecked the injector connections and all are solidly attached. Fuel rail connections tight. Unplugged the MAF and the car would not start at all. Plugged it back in and it would still ...

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

Hmm, I will take a look at the IAC tomorrow. Also will try unplugging the MAF to see if that could be the culprit. I tried spraying carb cleaner around the vac connections with no luck. Idle was not affected. The car ran rough upon starting before this job, but ran fine when warm. Now it's ...

Re: PCV System Repair on a Volvo 5-cylinder

Hi fellas. I need a little help and hope the people who've contributed to the thread can give it. I have done the complete PCV replacement job on a '98 V70 XC (turbo), 150k miles, with the kit from IPD. I started pulling the intake stuff apart to replace the coolant line to the turbo. Couldn't reach ...

Re: Very small favor needed- master window switch parts '98

Wow that would be awesome. I am having a conversation with one guy on Craigslist who says he has one in Charlotte and will ship it. Trying to ascertain if he is legit. Since I wrote this it has become apparent that I need the whole switch. One part of it that controls one of the back windows is ...

Very small favor needed- master window switch parts '98 XC70

Took the switch apart to clean contacts (which I learned to do from this excellent site ) and the small metal posts that push on the plastic switch actuator dealio shot out into the stratosphere. I need at least two of those posts and the small springs underneath them. They pull right out of the ...
