PISTON RINGS NOT AVAILABLE.... THEY HAD A LITTLE PROBLEM!! 900 1995

posted by someone claiming to be Mullah Mohammed al-Mustafa Abdul Achmahd bin Fuqua on Tue Jan 29 04:28 CST 2002 [RELATED]

It seems I am in good company. Borton Volvo cannot get piston rings for that car because they have been purged from inventory. It seems they determined a long time ago that the 960 is prone to losing rings.

So now you get to buy all new pistons, then rings, then journal bearings.

Looking at another $2,000 ++

Thought you'd like to know.
