7 VII 7 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hmm. I'm assuming you don't have a CEL? I was fixing an evap leak that had code P0445. Only time will tell if that was what the problem was. no CEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corivus Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 was getting crappy start up every time, checked the starter, checked battery and alternator, they all checked out fine so I checked the fuel system and sure enough the FPR was acting wonky so I put in the spare and now it starts up just fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BtownVolvo Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 no CEL Hmm I'm not sure TBH. Could be just residual fuel burning off although the more likely cause is a small evap leak somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R MOOSE Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Left the SR in the garage,and took the VR to work. I don't think the S will ever see snow again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy. Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Where did my intake mani go? Oh there it is PCV done. yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survolvo Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Did mine a few days ago. Just finaly got the 3 inches of fuel hose i needed for the rail. Been crusin with some silicone since it was all I had on hand But I did manage to strip out one of the mani bolt holes Will fix it soon though, I will get to do some more cleaning since I didn't have a TB gasket, so i just swung the intake over, which limited my cleaning ease.

Tommy. Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Nice PCV friends! I need to stock up on worm clamps then I'll be able to clean out my TB, clamps were very limited and I didn't have the volvo tool so it was tough getting them on. Was going to do my custom intake too but autozone doesn't carry any cone filters that have a 2.5 inlet fucking useless.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survolvo Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 I've been experimenting with a bunch of them. I have a 3" with a coupler at th MAF. I've been finding that zipties work great for Vac Lines. I hate those little clamps that are deep in there. I've got big hands, so just checking my tranny fluid is a chore. Zipties and LOOONG needle nose pliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
