Rob Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 Holy Hanna it's plated ! next step MikeI need to get an oil pressure guage working before I set out on a maiden voyage. All systems look good and seem to operate fine but the oil pressure guage will not indicate. Citing the oil and water problems I've experienced with this truck, along with old oil supply lines, there is a distinct possibility of losing the engine should it cease to oil before it would be noticed. I've not had time to get them replaced yet. I did however winterize the truck after checking both the water, and oil and finding no further contamination.Hope to get back to it within the next few days.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

I was very pleased with the job that was done. I would also recommend this shop called ACORN here in south Nashville to anyone close to this area. The guy named Joe has a small shop out of a small home but puts out quality and that is what I mostly look for in a business and was very interested in what truck I was putting the radiator in. I've had no time for the installment this week. Maybe next. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have an extra "Volvo" emblem that is a mate to the one I posted should you need it.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
