We have spent the past two days ordering parts, studying diagrams and videos, walking to the hardware and auto parts stores, taking an Uber to other parts stores, testing the engine, and taking the fuel system apart. We are at the point of reassembling the engine but have decided to stop for the day. It is dark, we are tired and we want to make sure that we get it right.
Setting up the toilet paper test to determine where the leak originates.
All ready to test.
This is the gasket that was on the engine. We believe it is aluminum.
The replacement Volvo gasket is copper.

Sounds so frustrating, but you are trying everything to get it right. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteFrustrating is right, and we are indeed trying. We hope it is fixed now but will find out once we leave here in a couple of days. Thanks for the encouragement.
