Copy and paste from event flier:
The SVS technical session will discuss the care, tuning and maintenance of pre-1975 Volvo's with B16, B18 or B20 engines.

The session will be headed by Robert Marcello, the original founder of SVS (12/80), an independent repair facility. He is also a Master Technician as defined by Volvo. In addition, Robert is a current member of, and has won the VISTA (Volvo International Service Technician Association) competition in 1978.

Robert will discuss how to keep these Volvo's tuned and running safely with today's fuels and motor oils. He will also discuss engine rebuilds, A/C kit installations, etc. and handle questions from the audience.

Robert would also like to have subjects and questions from interested participants beforehand, so that he can prepare. Please forward all questions to Jeff Molander, as listed below.

During the afternoon, we will find a location for lunch and then break up to visit local auto dismantlers and Pick 'n Pulls of your choice.

The sites include:
-Volvo & Saab Auto Dismantlers, 3539 Recycle Rd. Rancho Cordova 635-9970

-Pick ‘n Pull 3445 Sunrise Blvd. Rancho Cordova 689-1446
http://www.picknpull.com/
-Pick ‘n Pull 11355 Dismantle Ct. Rancho Cordova, 689-1446

-Pick ‘n Pull 7590 Stockton Blvd. Sacramento, CA 689-2000
http://www.picknpull.com/
-Sweden Auto Warehouse 8516 Fruitridge Rd. Sacramento, CA 387-6892

These facilities will be toured earlier in the month to give interested club members a sense of expired Volvo stock that is available for scavenging. We would generally expect the majority to be 1980’s – 90’s vintage.
