A few quick timing belt / water pump questions
In the process of a timing belt job on a 2000 non turbo. It’s 1/4 past TDC and then back to TDC to unload the vvt right? Doesn’t mention it in the guide I’m looking at as they have an 850. Also, with all of the coolant being drained, what do you guys usually run in yours and how much does it hold?

The 850 doesn't have a VVT gear. I take it you didn't use a cam lock when you removed your original timing belt? You should be able to find Youtube vids on detailed instructions on resetting the VVT gear by Googling. The coolant should be silicate and phosphate free - You should be able to use the green coolants (that's what I used in my 850). Avoid the Dexcool "orange. You can research and buy online at Volvo/Euro friendly web stores like EEuroparts, FCP Euro. Owner's manual says the car takes about 7 Liters of coolant.
