Went by my favorite parts house today TAP-VPI here in Houston, to get at least one coil pack to install while changing the plugs.
John, VPI owner, drives a V90, his able assistant Scott drives a 1997 964. Both use the Volvo plugs. I bought a set, 6 on a card. Volvo card marked and in three boxes at the top are: Pic of 965 front, then 960, S/v90 S80. Box #2, pic of hourglass, the 91-->. Box #3 pic of a B6304 engine, 6-cyl, exl. turbo, B280E/F
Plugs: Volvo p/n 8642661 (may be fr/n for the 6-pak card.) Written on the 3-prong plug in the ring of steel - MADE IN FRANCE b10X9146775 On the ceramic is only the word VOLVO in the logo font. $18.67 before tax.
Coil Pack: Volvo p/n 1275971. In Volvo box, Made in Spain. $58.93 before tax.
What prices for these items have you found at your sources?
So next in The Job.
Not having the book on this job, are there any tips on it, like if there is oil in the "well", how to get it out?
AND - any important torque values? There is only one mounting bolt hole. Torque on that bolt? Are there 0-rings? Anything to use as sealant?
Thanks to all you folks, makes my non-240 jitters (new car, new engine, interference, and the critical wifemobile) fade away.
