Hello...
First, I got annoyed by Volvo's idler arm bushing design, so I turned my own out of bronze and put them in, so far so good. (been in for 4 weeks now.) Steering feel is alot better. But I can't think of the downsides yet, so if anyone has comments about it,please speak out. (I am now thinking of changing it to urethane or teflon, might do better at shock absorbing.)
Second, I got an oil-cooler from a RX7 today, looks huge! Anyways, I am gonna turn/mill an adapter to go on the oil-filter thing and build another thing I can screw the filter on so I can also relocate the filter so somewhere easier to access. But the question is that will the Volvo oil-pump handle it? (I mean will it build pressure fast enough...) And since I have too much time (hahaha.) and already have the cooler, do you think it is worth it to put it in?
Cheers!
