volvo 850 1995 turbo.... I am going to change the evap. and I was thinking better get volvo original. Then I thought isn't that why I'm changing it.?? Are the evaps and dryers ok to use from the china parts distributor FCP Grouton or should I buy a name brand. What mfg's parts should I use? Thank you

    I have just begun to do evaps in my 99 XC and 96 850T, in fear that my wife is going to divorce me if I don't restore the A/C in both cars when the heat hits in DC. Yes, the fcp accum and dryers are Communist but look fine to me. Cost difference is huge. Buy all your o-rings and other little tidbits from your dealer. The OEMs fit so much better. I suggest spending the $50 and buying the entire heater line firewall transition piece, comes complete with all the o-rings both sides from Volvo.
    Detailed instructions at woodjoiner,com/volvo/ or google it. He did a fantastic job and asks for a small Paypal donation. [send one to Brickboard while you are at it...]
