Re: Need help diagnosing oil leak [1997 Volvo 850 GLT]
Glad to hear that Dave B at Ithaca Foreign Car Service is still in business. I haven't been there in more than 10 years... the last time I visited back in 2004 I bought my '97 855 GLT from him. It had about 64K miles. It has been a great car... now up to 186K miles and still running great.
1997 855 GLT (Light Pressure Turbo) still going strong. Previous: 1986 240 GL rusted out in '06, 1985 Saab 900T rusted out in '95, 1975 Saab 99 rusted out in '95, 1973 Saab 99 rusted out in '94

They moved into a new building in 2007, now serving Ithaca area for 38 years!
I once was in a Ithaca traffic jam of 6 consecutive Volvo wagons, talk about market segmentation.

This past weekend Ithaca had their very unique Volvo parade that's traditionally part of the Ithaca Festival parade. Unfortunately I missed it. There are plenty of youtube videos.

Ithaca is the only place where I keep saying "there an 850"...and "there's another one"...I've been on drives through Ithaca at times when I passed or been with multiple 850s. Being at an intersection and seeing two or three 850s is like freaky.
Now I know where all the 850s went.
