Default Greetings bipeds!

Hi folks, I recently came into possession of a '91 940Turbo. It's my first car with a turbo, it's my first Volvo, and I'm really starting to like it! My previous car was a '93 Grand Marquis, which I was very fond of, but I was given the Volvo so I gave the Grand Marquis to a friend who was carless, who gave a laptop of his to a friend who was laptopless (and a student in a computer graphics program, so being laptopless was a big problem). So this car the foundation of quite a bit of pay-it-forward.

It runs very well overall, the AC is cold, and the little unusual design elements (like the door latches on the inside, which are unlike anything I've ever seen on another car) are really starting to endear this car to me. I'm getting from 20 to as high as 25.5 mpg. This car spends it's time between 5500' and 8000' which might affect the mileage a bit.

The speedo doesn't work, which won't surprise many people it seems. I fixed it the easy way; a used GPS system off of eBay. $25 bucks and I've got a speedo.

I have some questions about the car, so I look forward to learning from you all!
