Recently replaced the non-working in tank pump on my Turbo, which will stay in boost now and runs smoothly. Also seem to have cured fluctuating idle, which was probably the missing vacuum cap on the flame trap assy. Found that while replacing all the vacuum lines (hate Turbos), and cleaned the throttle body , since removing it allowed me to reach the hidden vacuum lines. ....BUT
the return fuel line cracked when I tried to remove the fitting over the rear axle. Every time I splice in some hose, it cracked another spot.
If you do this, either cut the line off the connector, or buy yourself a new line..........which I am attempting to do, don't know if Volvo has it.

--->Anyone replaced the metal return fuel line from firewall to axle? <-----

Having SO much FUN!
Going back to putting the head on the 16valve, can't deal with the TURBO anymore.
