Impeller, outdrive? Can you please explain? I don't want to miss anything. Thankscmattj wrote: ↑Wed Sep 13, 2017 10:22 pm Good read and get the impeller changed and outdrives done if not recent.. I do mine yearly..
I've tried k&n filters as opposed to the standard flame aresster.. No difference in performance
But it does cancel out the whistle the iac port makes on most 8.1. 2600 rpm to 3300 rpm

It's on your harmonic balancer. I think 3or4 little bolts hold it on. Don't over tighten them or they will break. There's also a little rubber stop that should go on the bracket. It likes to melt and turn to rubber mush.HITTHEGAS wrote: ↑Sat Sep 16, 2017 7:24 pmImpeller, outdrive? Can you please explain? I don't want to miss anything.

+1 well you know . Ha!
Impeller is easier on volvo.. do them yearly
Outdrives are drained.. pressure checked. New orings.. do them yearly.
Find a certified volvo shop as they can differ from mercruiser.

Mine runs 140 I need to change it. It was a interesting find one day I was playing around on the web.

I guess as long as oil temp gets to 170 it's fine?
Do miss that gauge along with .. yes Aslan.. water pressure..
