From what I have heard it shouldn't be too difficult and I thought you liked tinkering with the car? Surely you can muster up the guts to do it?

If your worried about how to put it back together I can always bring mine along to use as comparison although it would have to be a weekend

i do tend to mess about with cars, usually under me mates supervision lol, would rather someone who knows volvos.

just wondered if anyones up for lending a hand?

Hi, Go on have ago, i'm not lying it is a big job, but keep it methodical, i managed to do it without taking the fuel rail off the intake manifold, and i also kept the throttle body attached, didnt need to revmove cap or rotor either but would probably been easier to route the new pipes if i had.

I did manage to cross thread the lower bolt which holds the dip stick tube into the bottom of the manifold, and there is a nasty bracket to re attach to the bottom of the manifold to after it's all back together, very awckward.

very tight, take your time. but easy if you have done it before.
