1995 850 Wagon Milky Substance on Dipstick

So, went to check the oil this morning (for the first time since I bought it), and noticed water droplets all the way up the dipstick shaft, and a milky/mayo type substance on the end of the dipstick. I freaked a bit, opened the oil filler cap and noticed the oil in the cam areas is normal, dirty bu...

Hey all. New to the forums, and Volvo's in general. Just picked up a 95 850 Turbo Wagon this weekend and had a question about the PNP switch: Drove it home fine from where I bought it on Saturday, let it sit until yesterday afternoon when I started it up. Started up great, seems to run fine, when I ...
