The rubber boot snapped

Not a biggie. Pick n pull or cheap replacement. You can even tape it up.

O Reilly's. Rock auto Advance will carry them

Or Amazon $10.19:

I just keep them on the shelf or I go to a pick and pull and have 2 or 3 complete coilpacks on hand. They usually fail one after the other on a high mileage car

Got them! One plug is still stuck -letting it sit again tonight with PB on it. Just noticed this hose is disconnected! Can't be good... no idea how long it's been disconnected!

( split thread from other poor running thread)

Don't sweat the loose hose..that's fresh air to the air cleaner. Just try to stick it back into the plenum on the radiator but it's not too important.

Can't wait to see a picture of those plugs, bet they are ugly. You want Bosch our NGK single electrode plugs in that turbo by the way, not the three electrode ones everyone tries to sell

I got everything sorted out on Sunday

Replaced a few boots, used an ez out tool to grab the snapped screws, and voila. Done. Today I did a drain and fill of the transmission fluid because it was time (I did it a couple of weeks ago and it was NASTY)
And then tonight, as I was rolling my drivers side window up I her a "kerplunk" like something fell down in the door - then the window dropped t a angle.

I'll watch a couple of the RobertDIY videos and see if I can't remove the door panel and assess the damage..
This whole Volvo-scapade is really cutting into my winter knitting time

SERIOUSLY?! As I'm trying to figure all of this out in my driveway, my BATTERY died. UGH! Glad I backed in, I suppose.

Damage is you now need a new window regulator!

Interesting thread, I believe the window problem is the plastic sliders that connect the glass to the regulator arms,
about $7 for the pair.
