KKs penalty from God is having to live in the OC and deal,with all those rusty bolts
At least your Jeep has a waterfall grille.

Cool
I drove one of those for over 10 years so I get it.
I just like knowing where the curbs are. Of course I have been known to hop those in my Jeep.

Finally got the engine back in the V70 after 10 days
First startup went fine for 10s then the bottom oil cooler line popped off and spilled a good liter of oil everywhere
So far everything seems to work as intended. The new clutch engagement point is super low compared to my old one, which wasn't really worn down
And I think I got most of the air out of the cooling system

All good with me! I like to see what everyone's up to, even if it's not Volvo stuff. It's pretty much a given we all like cars in general, right?
