Hi- I am still fighting with the noisy lifters on the 98 V70.
Did the o ring cure didnt help.
Plenty of oil flippin around on top of the cams, all over my shirt etc when I open the filler cap!
I would like to put an oil pressure gauge on this and see what the pressure is- but I cant figure out where..
Is there a port on the head that I can measure oil pressure in the cam galley?
I want to check before I attempt to replace the lifters which doesnt look like too much fun...

 

In the picture below the red arrow points to the factory oil pressure light. Remove that and install a gauge and start it and look at the pressure.

 

When you put the sending unit in that place you better use the right size adapter for it. Otherwise you'll leak oil.

Don't ask me how I know.

 

The EPA already knows all about it, they're still looking for you. They want to know why anybody has a Volvo named "Exxon Valdez II".

 

Well i bit the bulet and bought a new set of lifters from FCP sure hope it cures it!
Still having a hard time scannong this thing too.....

 

did you install the lifters yet? if you did, did it cure your noisy lifters?

 

Wow! old thread! I dont even have that car anymore!
But YES the new lifters cured ALL my problems. The old ones were shot...

 

that was good.l just replaced all my lifters, but the car gets very quiet and after some miles of driving it starts knocking, and stops after driving for some miles then starts knocking again. goes on and off. could it be that l got a set of bad lifters? its new and l got it from FCP.thanks

 

did you lifters get quiet as soon as you replaced the lifters with new ones?mine makes noise and stops. and comes back again.did yours do same?
