Hi, all of my other Volvos have been red blocks, (140 series and older) I now have an 1996 5spd.850 turbo wagon, wooohooo and a bunch of simple questions:
A). what octane am I supposed to use?
B). Oil viscosity? ( I am assuming synthetic)
C). Manual trans. fluid?
D). Brake fluid anything special?
E). Coolant? (anything special or is prestone OK?)
F). Are there good repair manuals available? Older volvo's have the "green books" anything similar?

Thank you for your time and expertise!
