Air Box Hose Identification
 
What was supposed to connect to this hose nipple on the front of my air box that now has the red plug in it?

Also, not in the picture, what goes to the small hose attachment on the back of the air box cover?

this fine automobile is a 1995 wagon non turbo

what is the SAS air pump?

Sure its not a 96? A 95 should not have that. Maybe someone bought one from a wrecker and just plugged that port.

hmmm. It has OBD2 and the pin out box with the blinking light in the engine bay. Door jam also says 1995.

What else should I look for to see if I have any SAS components hanging around my engine bay.

I don't have that hose on mine but do on my '98 S70. That box is likely an inplant.

What if I said I had an air pump fuse?

No I don't believe so. No sunroof, cloth seats.

There was a cross over year (95) where they have both the pin out box and OBDII. I have a 95 N/A and it does not have the port. I still think that airbox came from a later model. The real answer is going to have to come from the previous owner.

I'm with Boxpin on the air box. Not saying that you don't have an air pump, you just don't have the plumbing for that box tube.

As for the OBD-I & OBD-II ports, a lot of 850's have both. I believe it's mainly the '94-1/2 turbos and '95 turbo cars. Both of my T-5R's have both and several people with '94 turbo's have both. It's a cool feature. Go Volvo! Wish they would have left the OBD-I in the cars.

This is good news overall. I was concerned I had some disconnected components in the engine bay.

Hopefully I don't find any more SAS parts.

There was a cross over year where they need each the pin out box and OBDII. I actually have a ninety five and it doesn't have the port. I still assume that airbox came from a later model. the $64000 answer goes to possess to return from the previous owner.
