98 V70 AWD Looking For a Document

Post by rmmagow »

A little while back one of our members posted a detailed w/pictures head gasket job for a turbo. I believe he mentioned it was based on the tracytruesoaps document with some modifications. I am trying to find this document so I can print it out. I believe it was posted in the past couple of months, but am having no luck finding it.
Thanks Much

THANK YOU!
I was just laid-off at work after 25 years. They gave me a "work-through" date of year's end so I'm going to tax their very nice color laser printer for some good info to use in my upcoming retirement. I should become even more annoying now that I can spend time fixing up loads of old clunker Volvos :-)

I'm retired and my how-to printouts of past repairs is an inch thick and just got transferred into an expandable folder.

Hope you get some severance. :wink: In any case, we look forward to more of your wisdom/experience in the collective pool.
