1998 S70 GLT. Boost vacuum leak.

Post by Vancethevolvo »

I just did a pcv replacement on my 98 S70 GLT with 182,000 miles and while the car was on the lift I noticed the turbo compressor vacuum line was completely disconnected. Could this be what's responsible for the rough idle upon startup?

Probably not but that will steal lots of power.

Sounds good to me! I bought it about 5,000 miles ago and already think it's very powerful. I won't cry about more power. Lol
