Problem Solved? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Build on  Tue Jan 29 08:22 CST 2019 [RELATED]

Art and Phil,

I try to be as analytical as I can, but just accept that it's fixed after never finding a flaw in those newer hoses. I'm sure it's like Phil said, a leak when contorted, something I couldn't find. This has taught me to smoke test first if vacuum leak symptom is suspected.

Another good result is the car runs much better than before, smoother on idle, more power and responsive. Even though I've maintained and driven this car every day for 17 years, small degradations over time go unnoticed, until one day it's passed its limit.

I hope I can be of help to the Volvo community, as you all have been to me.
Jim
