Hi Phil,

I gave the old girl a romp around Odessa today with the temps hanging at 95 or so. The engine stayed below 195 so she was purring like a kitten. New pumps, new timing belt and seals, replaced Ignition Control computer with a known good one. Tomorrow I am going to insulated the fuel lines from the filter to the return side of the rail and wait for another 100+ day to try her out.

I may install an electric fan in the front of the radiator with a temperature switch for long idle periods, but other than that, it seems that she is working like a Volvo should.

Regards,
