HI,
I would like to know what is this part and what does it do.\? It is broken
Thanks AJ

 

No picture.

 

Hi, sorry I have added the pic.

 

That hose provides a cooling air flow to the ECU box. With it being torn like that I'd have to think it's supplying slightly less than design flow. Not to big a deal though, you could wrap black electrical tape around it until you can replace it. You might be able to get one from a car being parted out.

 

Hi megatrack,

Wallie's response is correct. I thought this thread might help you out. https://volvoforums.com/m_64768/tm.htm
I had a similar issue when I bought my car (except that it was completely missing!).
Also, the part number (given in the thread) is: 8619305.

I was able to order it through www.eEuroparts.com (I called to order it and they beat the other online prices I could find). It was $15.90 through them. I have been unsuccessful finding a parts car nearby, so for less than $20 I figured I might as well just order a new one.

Hope that helps.

 

Nice price!

 

I should point out that I also got the shipping waived because I was ordering quite a few other parts at the same time. (I was also missing the ductwork that brought outside air into the air filter box). So, I was getting some dirty hot engine air being sucked into the engine. It seems to be running a lot smoother these days now that I've had a few months to go through most of the repairs/fixes that the previous owner had neglected to deal with. I really haven't spent too much doing it either, so I think we've got a pretty good deal now. Hopefully treated properly it'll keep running for many years to come.

 

Thanks for the part # 99VolvoV70I looked at Europarts.com and they are now $13.58 not bad at all.

No problem, glad to help. I know most people on here use FCP Groton, but I started using eEuroparts and they've treated me well. I ended up over-ordering a lot on my first order so they let me return a large portion of the order without charging the dreaded re-stocking fee. After that and a number of times with great customer support finding part numbers etc, I always check their prices first.

Also, after ordering, I noticed the return address was Putnam, CT which is the neighboring town to where I grew up. FCP Groton is in Groton, CT which also isn't far away. It's odd to me that two Volvo parts places are in eastern CT.

 

Wait... I'm missing that hose... And from the looks of it, the box that it attaches to on the radiator... Anyone have the part number for that box thing on the radiator???
