Volvo pressure bleeding tricks
Home-Made Pressure Bleeder. [TV Pierce] You can make your own pressure bleeder. Power Motive's is nothing more than a garden sprayer with a brake reservoir cap attached to the end of the tube instead of a spray nozzle (they also add a pressure guage -- but it's not really necessary). The sprayer is about $10 at Home Depot, and a new reservoir cap should be $2-$3 at FCP Groton. Drill a hole through the cap, epoxy a tube fitting through the hole, then cut off the spray nozzle, and attach the reservoir cap.
[Gary Gilliam] I made mine out of a cheap all plastic 4 liter ( about $13) garden sprayer, and an old master cap. I cut the hose just above the sprayer wand, attached a 5/16" brass fitting that is commonly used for repairing air lines: it is barbed on one end to stick inside the hose and has 1/4" NPT threads on the other. This was secured to the hose with a stainless hose clamp and a 1/2" hole was drilled in the extra master cylinder cap to receive the other end of the fitting. The fitting was secured to the cap with a 1/2" long brass NPT straight connector, adding a rubber washer on both sides coated in RTV for good measure. I was going to add a pressure gauge, but never got around to it. It seems to work fine with just enough pumps to get things moving a bit.

Volvo 850 Bleeding the brakes
 |
| Bleeding hose attached |
NOTE: Use only DOT 4 grade brake fluid.
1) Raise and support vehicle. Fill master cylinder reservoir
to maximum mark. Bleed brakes in sequence. See
BRAKELINE BLEEDING SEQUENCE. After bleeding brakes, depress
brake pedal with a force equal to an abrupt stop.
2) Pedal travel should not exceed 1.57" (40 mm). Brake
warning light should not illuminate. If air is still present in
system, repeat procedure.

ENGINE IDENTIFICATION
Engine may be identified by using Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN) stamped on a metal pad, located near lower left corner of
windshield. The sixth and seventh character identifies engine model.
Engine identification number, located on left side of
cylinder block below cylinder head, may be required when ordering
replacement parts.

CAUTION:Failure to replace a faulty camshaft timing belt may result
in serious engine damage.
The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be
checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive
belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components
on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty
schedules in the mid-1980’s to reflect timing belt inspection and/or
replacement at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in
this manual reflect these changes.
Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any
of the following conditions exist:
*Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
*Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
*Oil Contamination
*Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
*Incorrect Tension Adjustment
Volvo recommends replacement of the camshaft timing belt at
the following intervals:

1994-96 ................................................ 70,000

TIMING BELT
Removal
1) Remove spark plug cover and 2 fuel line clips. Lift out
expansion tank and place on top of engine. Remove front timing belt
cover. Remove auxiliary drive belt. Remove right front wheel and
release wheel arch liner to gain access to vibration damper. Remove
vibration damper guard. Turn crankshaft clockwise until all timing
marks are aligned. See Fig. 8.
2) Remove tensioner upper mounting bolt and loosen tensioner
lower bolt. Twist tensioner to free pulley. Remove lower bolt,
tensioner, upper timing belt cover and belt.
3) Remove tensioner upper mounting bolt and loosen lower
mounting bolt. Twist tensioner to free plunger/pulley. Remove lower
bolt, tensioner and belt.
CAUTION:DO NOT turn crankshaft or camshafts while belt is removed.
Inspection
1) Spin tensioner and idler pulleys and listen for bearing
noise. See Fig. 11.
2) Ensure pulley surfaces in contact with belt are clean and
smooth. Check tensioner pulley arm and idler pulley mountings, and
tighten bolts as necessary. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS. Check tensioner
for signs of leakage, no resistance when depressed, or a plunger that
cannot be depressed.
Installation
1) Compress tensioner and tighten center nut. Wait until
compression has taken place and insert a 2 mm locking pin in plunger.
Install tensioner and tighten mounting bolts to 18 ft. lbs. (25 N.m).
Place timing belt around crankshaft pulley and right idler. Place belt
over camshaft pulleys. Position belt around water pump and press over
tensioner pulley.
2) Rapidly remove tensioner locking pin.
reverse removal procedure. Turn crankshaft 2 revolutions to ensure
timing marks on crankshaft and camshaft pulleys are aligned.
WATER PUMP
Removal
Remove expansion tank cap and drain coolant. Remove timing
belt. See TIMING BELT. Remove bolts holding water pump to engine
block. See Fig. 13. Remove water pump.
Installation
