Default Hello from Newbie

Hi All,

Found this place right after picking up my 1995 850 Turbo. Always wanted one for some reason.
Only 85k miles on the clock. Not new to these types of forums; currently a moderator over at 4x4wire.com.

Welcome, any performance plans for the Volvo? If you need any help just ask.

No major or moderate performance mods to it (yet). I am currently doing maintenance items.

So far, I have flushed the tranny, changed to Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil, ran Seafoam, replaced the serpentine belt, and spark plugs. A minor mod done has been relocating the horns.

I have all the maintenance history and a lot of the known problems have already been fixed:
60k mi.: Front o2 sensor
62k mi.: Ignition coil, fuel pressure regulator, dist. cap/rotor/wires
65k mi.: Timing belt, shift lever lockout switch, & coolant cap
67k mi.: Air mass sensor & turbo drain pipe seal
84k mi.: Both front CV axles & upper engine mount bushing
