Circa 2010. I was 20 and bought my first Volvo. A 1988 244 5-speed with 200,000 miles. Car was a learning experience to say the least. Learned how to rebuild the interior and make things look nice. Met a friend or two along the way. This was me and fellow member Frodosm3 at Qualcomm stadium: Untitled by jacobpockros , on Flickr... Read more

Hi Folks, I'm making a new post about this because my prior post on AC specs needs a new title. 2005 MCS, my AC is not working properly, and there was some strange intermittency in its behavior....

I saw a beautiful Gentian Blue car available a month ago online, a low optioned car. It was/is a base Carrera 2026, with no rear seats. How rare is that ? And curios is anyone else with a base or...

If anyone has been following i got a set of Stealth heads to throw on my 440. and when i got to measuring pushrod length what i had with the old heads was way off. (if i ran the 9.315 pushrods i potentially could have had .101 preload) now my issue is im getting varying pushrod lengths by a lot. .041 difference from shortest to longest after measuring with a checker at base circle and adjusting just until there's no slack but not compressing the lifters. is this something to be worried...

Thinking about doing this since I believe I already have the hardware on hand and the bushings arent too great looking at this point. Also the driver side is a little saggy which I'm guessing is due...

I’m just posting this in case it helps somebody else. About six months ago I had my speedometer followed by my temperature gauge go out in my 2005 LX 470. After lots of troubleshooting, my excellent mechanic determined that it was the instrument cluster. We could not find a reliable used one nor did they make replacement parts for these. In the end we ended up spending the money and shipping it off to Tanin electronix and having the whole thing rebuilt. Now three or four months later... Read more

Hi all I had to post something because I’m pretty dejected. I just paid $2000 to have a new ECU put into my KAJ 78. I’ve only had it back for a few weeks after being off the road for months yesterday driving home the temperature gauge was almost in the red so I pull over. I was close to home so I let it cool down and made it to home to find out there was no coolant hardly in the system. I filled it up and it seemed to be running OK but I think it’s still losing coolant. I did some research... Read more

2010 LX570, about 225k miles. Looking for input from anyone who's chased this. Background: Condenser fan went intermittent, then dead. While troubleshooting I found the fan running with the relay and fuse pulled, so there's a wiring short I haven't fully run down yet. Then A/C went hot. Scan showed B1422 (Compressor Lock), plus B1421/B1424 (solar sensors, which I'm ignoring). Fuses and MG CLT relay all tested good. Old compressor ended up seizing, smoked, and burned the belt...

Hello everyone,I need some help on this...I found this relay under my dash on my 1974 Plymouth Duster base model and I can't figure out what it's used for and it seems burnt out. I can't find any about it or how to find a replacement. Can someone help me with this ....It looked like some of the wires control the dome light and door switches.( I THINK/NOT SURE)... I'm so confused at this point .It's an odd three way terminals with an odd configuration. Here's some pictures, hopefully... Read more

My somewhat new to me 2002 doesn't seem to have functional magnasteer. Low speed is hard to steer, much harder than my friends 2000, and the effort doesn't seem to ever change effort with change in...

1995 Volvo 960 Wagon Might as well make a thread for my car. I have been looking for a road trip wagon for a while, both for a specific cross-country road trip I intend to undertake in a few months, and just general road trip/miata parts gathering usage. I was originally looking at a Buick Roadmaster or similar, but B-bodies have gotten popular apparently, and people want a lot for one that isn't full of rust holes. Plus I managed to drive (an admittedly somewhat clapped out) one and... Read more

What is up fellow cruiser heads. First of all thanks for all the great information on this forum, it has really helped out and givin me a lot of great ideas. Well 5 years ago I sold my 1984 Toyota pick up and bought a 1989 FJ62 with 270,000 miles on it. I have pretty much been using it as a daily driver and now it has 313,000 miles, and then, it died. Up until it died it has been extremely reliable, gutless and gas guzzlin, but reliable. I have slowly been troubleshooting the not start... Read more
