New Exhaust Problem 200 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be iagoodmani on  Mon Oct 4 17:20 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Thanks for your help. It turns out that the metal piece next to the gas tank is supposed to be taken off, so that there isn't rubbing. My mechanic meant that you're supposed to take off the two bolts that hold the gas tank and the metal piece on (there are two more bolts that hold this piece on). My mechanic also said that this piece is there as part of the crumple zone system. In an accident it makes sure the metal crumples the right way. This technique of taking this piece off is used by Volvo dealerships.
