Re: Engine Intermidently Pecking at Idle 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve on  Thu May 17 17:06 CST 2001 [RELATED]

The noise is a lifter. Happens as the miles pile up. If it goes away when you drive it's not too much of a worry. If it doesn't it (they) need to be replaced. I understand Volvo has a lifter upgrade for the 850 motors becuase some of them were noisy. Soft lifters can affect valve timing and also make the idle uneven.
