Here's what I did... 850 1997

...at 80k miles, when I bought my '96 855T,

As you can see, I replaced the Cap & Rotor, they were quite worn out. I did the ignition wires, too. I highly reccommend flushing the ATF fluid as well. As a matter of fact, I did mine twice, about 1000 miles apart, just to get the tranny cleaned out real good. Parts were purchased from www.alloemvolvoparts.com FCPGroton is a great place, too.
