98 s70 fwd suspension ?'s
What is the difference between fwd and awd front suspension? I found a kit that is for a full overhaul bit it is for awd only. I would like to know so I maybe wont have to spend the extra $200 on the extra party's for the fwd kit.(extra parts meaning control arms, end links, and tie rods)

Re: 98 S70 all cylinders misfiring, rough idle
So the misfire was caused by the cam seal behind the distributor. Cap was full of oil and cam seal peices. All replaced plus new plugs and coil. Now off to replace PCV. Dipstick tube IS smoking. Thanks for everybody's help.

Re: DIY: 1998 Volvo S70 GLT PCV Mod: no more smoking dipstic
Is this essentially the same as over hauling the PCV system? Just not buying a pre-assembled kit? And where would I (or others) go about finding these seperated parts, by part numbers givin?(the clamps are really hard). Sorry for so many questions, this is my next project. Going stage 0.

Re: 98 S70 all cylinders misfiring, rough idle
Ok, so new wires are added to the mix. And what is the best method of cleaning the cam sensor without damaging it. Should I use MAF cleaner or carb cleaner or something completely different? Thank you everyone again for your help and support.

Re: 98 S70 all cylinders misfiring, rough idle
No nothing coming out of my dip tube, however my oil looks gunky at the tip of the dipstick. A light brown tannish color

98 S70 all cylinders misfiring, rough idle
So I purchase my S70 for $800 broken. It wouldn't start when I bought it. Turns out it was a timing issue. Re-aligned the timing, changed the plugs for Denso platinum, Denso wires, Bosch cap and rotor, it started right up. It drove great for about two months, until l decided to see what it could do....
