Hi, I recently purchased a '94 850 Turbo Wagon. This morning I fixed the broken odometer gear using the IPD kit. One thing I noticed when I removed the lense was that the low oil level idiot light had no bulb in it (it had a gray void plug, the same as the TRACS and other items my car didn't have) Even the IPD video had no bulb in that slot. I know that the 850 Turbos tend to have issues with broken/cracked lines to the turbo as well as problems with lines coming off the oil cooler causing catastrophic engine failure. Is there an oil level sender on this car? I'm wondering if should have had a bulb in there, for one would think it would be a good thing to be warned. Thanks, Aaron

 

I don't think you have the sender in there. If you have a problem the oil light will come on when it notices a pressure loss.

 

That's what I thought. I think it may be smart to add a oil pressure guage. It could save me big $$ down the road. - AB

 

Tech is correct.

Volvo stopped putting the senders in on the 94 model year because of so many problems with it on the 93s.
