1990 760 Turbo Wagon - Any trusted mechanics out there?

Not sure if there is a "sticky" for this topic anywhere on this forum. There is one kept on the VW/ AUDI TDI forum which members contribute to and use often. Either way for starters, does anyone in South Florida ( Palm Beach , Broward or Dade counties) have a good trusted Volvo mechanic th...

Re: 1990 760 Turbo Wagon - Heater blower FUSE keeps blowing

Fuse 28 is for compressor and blower motor in a/c and heater system. Is that the fuse that is blowing? They are calling 8/3 the compressor solenoid. It is a mistake as that is the compressor clutch.

Re: This 1985 745 turbo wagon. Good project car buy?

Buy the wagon and have fun. You will look alot cooler and be more comfortable driving the 745 turbo than in an 81 Rabbit. One day they may open an IKEA in Boise and you will be set. :D

Re: 1990 760 Turbo Wagon Newbie Day One (things)

Sure wish I had AC and fan again. Not sure why that is shorting out. Fuse 28 Heater Fan / AC keeps blowing. Started last night during a heavy rain if that might have got something shorted out... The green AC button began blinking just last night. The PO said he was having some issue with the AC if h...
