Well, to my great embarassment and now pain (from being cold in -16 weather), I should have listended to the telltale signs of my heater fan going bad and replaced it sooner. Now I have no heat... AND I still haven't taken care of that bad front left rusted caliper that makes my car pull to the left ...

Edited to remove possibly confusing old instructions.

If you find that the 70's dont fit i have a pair of 93's available.

Thanks tons for the help guys. Should I plan on replacing both the front brake hoses at the same time? fcp has some for 9 bucks ea or 20 ea for stainless steel hose. Any tricks for getting the hose off the caliper without ...

I realize that some manuals are better than others. However, I've never purchased a service manual for my Volvo and was wondering what people feel to be the best manuals in general for Volvos and for the 850 line?

Are the usual suspects any good? Haynes, Chiltons, etc? When I had a VW camper van, I ...

My 93 850's cmp sensor died during the final test drive after having the transmission replaced a couple of weeks ago. Odd, especially as it has no moving parts. Several hundred $'s later and I'm going again. uggh.

A newer Volvo (1998+) is looking better and better every day.
