Welcome! :smile:

Looks great, look forward to seeing what it looks like once you have got it, not a massive fan of the stickers!

Car is looking great, job looks good too :-)

Welcome to the forum! Loved my Ph2 V6, great cars, enjoy! :smile:

Loved that car, wish I hadn't sold it although think that about most of the cars I have owned, they are going up in value too just like the Clio V6 I shouldn't have sold :smile:

Had some good fun in that, no matter how hard you drove it always returned 50mpg+ wasn't that quick but felt quicker with it being so small and low, not very water resistant, other than that it was great :smile:

Those petrol pumps you have uploaded look good, lighting is key, early morning or early evening does tend to be best

+1 I would be up for this, depending on time and date, I don't know many locations unfortunately and I am no expert :smile: one of my favourites in Saffron Walden I used to use has no longer got the petrol pumps Multi storey car parks can be good As can graffiti Also seen some great pics...

Looks great already, can't wait to see it in the car!

I seem to add more to it every time I actually do something on the list :smile:

Added a debobbler to the list of things I need to buy :-)

Welcome back :smile:

That wouldn't be good, not that electrically savvy but hopefully will be able to get it sorted, thank you :smile:

That should help, thank you

Bit of background, bought my Ph1 with Ph2 lights at the rear have purchased some Ph1 lights but when I tried them on the car the lights worked but different things lit up than should have done, I need to check the bulbs properly but do you need to tweak the wiring to get Ph2 lights to fit on a...

Yes nearly there, for now I think, want to do the accelerator cable and throttle body off fully to clean properly next week. Also have handbrake cables to go on possibly next week depending on how the accelerator cable goes :smile: plus other bit's that need buying, have only washed it once will...

That's great thank you, tried to get a gasket for this weekend but left it too late to get one from Renault, I did as best I could with it on the car but it definitely needs to come off, seems sensible to take it off with the accelerator cable.

No, cleaned it but only on the car as didn't have a new gasket incase I ruined the one that was on, do you centralise the butterly by giving it a small dink with a hammer (technical term!) under the throttle position sensor? Going to change accelerator cable next weekend so was hoping to get a...

Cleaned and reinstalled the throttle body, idle control valve, TPS, airbox and exhaust with custom made mount and it seems to have helped with most of my issues, have water escaping from just after the cat (dripping) should this join in the exhaust have a gasket? Going to have to take it apart...

Made a custom mount using a new mount with added Sikaflex (just like Tiger Seal) no pictures unfortunately but filled in all the gaps on the normal mount and tried to force the hole for the exhaust to go through as high up as possible. Seems to have worked so far, let's see how long it lasts...

It will have to wait till next weekend :smile: took me so long cleaning and reinstalling the throttle body, idle control valve, TPS, airbox and exhaust with custom made mount that I ran out of time/light the good thing being it seems to have helped with most of my issues, although inevitably has...

Think I am giving this a go tomorrow, how long did it take you in total? I currently have no exhaust and most of the air intake missing so that will all have to go back on first

Look's great, love volvo's, especially older ones!

Welcome, enjoy it!

Will let you know tomorrow if it makes a difference :up:

Love your honesty 😂

Using that technique it did have 4 dashes so doesn't look like an injector fault, have found a hole in one of the pipes coming off the airbox so will fix that temporarily until I can get another one sorted and am in the middle of cleaning out the TB butterfly and the TDC sensor, also don't have...

Is their anyway I can check them to see before I get new?

Have driven up north in the Ph1 and when I was stuck in some traffic was getting the revs hunting but not all the time and sounding rougher than normal and was making me think maybe extra air getting in and then seems to have a misfire at low revs, seems fine when moving properly, any common...

Now that's a proper mount :smile:
