Another question about this "new" '88 V70 we have just bought. It has no Owners Manual, etc., with it and the guy I bought it from had bought it from auction and was not a Volvo person!! So please advise me on what grade gas it should use. It's the basic V70, no turbo or any of the the other go-faster goodies, so I guess it should be happy with Regular, is this right?
I did find what purports to be the Owners Manual on the following site
http://apps.volvocars.us/ownersdocs/1998/1998_SV70/98sv70_000.htm, however some of the info is not correct (position of light bulbs in the wagon rear light clusters) and it doesn't have anything about gas grades.
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

A note about the Radio Code I posted earlier, got what was supposed to be the code from the local dealer but still not working.
