Need a "Genuine Volvo Parts" or "Volvo for Life" sign for your wall. Thanks you saving these Volvo cars.

The very early 850s did have 4 lug wheels, at some point in '94 they updated it to 5 lug

[@volvoenthusiastsgroup3386]

That’s wild! Some how I never noticed that on any early model 850s I’ve seen. Definitely quirky😂

[@zanderxymox]

@@volvoenthusiastsgroup3386 what you do get on 93s that I wish the newer 850s had are aluminum control arms with replaceable bushings, and that sweet rear spoiler, but yeah the 4 lug wheels threw me off too when I noticed it for the first time 😂

[@amde4023]

Mine is a 93, and has 4 lug nuts. Weight reduction?😅😅

[@shanechostetler9997]

I’m glad that I’m not the only one loosing his mind😂

[@anemreivaj]

Good video! Thanks from Barcelona (Spain)

[@MYZTICTRAVLER]

I own this exact Volvo. I purchased mine brand new over in Germany and had it shipped back to the U.S. It is the exact color as this Volvo. But my interior is all slate grey. I loved seeing you get your Volvo running. Great work!!

[@arthur850_]

Wow! No warning lights on! I'm impressed😇 The injectors sounds like they want replacing. They are more like a machine gun if I compare them with mine. I actually have a original Volvo 850 booklet/brochure from 1993 out of a german Volvo dealer in Euskirchen. The pictures are still lovely to look at when this thing was brand new. You can see that some things got changed over time. I could show it somehow if you'd like to😊

LOL - I was going to tell you - love the socks!! :)

[@Canape21]

Awesome video and car!

[@rikardandersson7288]

Early 850s did have 4 lugs, then when the turbo came out that got 5 lugs and after that the whole range got 5 lugs. The early ones also have variable lenght intake runners

[@jellybean1976928]

This makes me feel that the 850 was perhaps seen in the design stage as a lesser vehicle in the range, cheaper etc than the 900's. The galvanising on the mid 90's ones I have owned shows a very high quality, better than modern cars by far, but I still get a bad taste about the early cars having budget style wheels.

[@Slacksfifth]

​@@jellybean1976928The early 93's have the same quality. As I own a 93 for the last 20yrs.

[@18_rabbit]

@@jellybean1976928 yeah, and the electronics,vs the 900.

[@realvolvofreak]

The first Volvo 850 were with 4 lug nuts. Later when they had a facelift they moved backed to the 5 "normal" volvo bolt pattern

[@shanechostetler9997]

I would have taken that gamble for $500!

[@tkremarkTK]

Can't wait!

[@alf4984]

850 is a very good car..not manny errors..

[@constantin441]

Hi! I'm very curious what the problem is with the sound, the injector or the tappets My car have the same noise

Ha ha I am waiting for the correct timing belt for my 1993 Volvo 850 now, i ordered the wrong one as well. I have also cut the old belt off and it is my daily driver so good job to me

[@manuelpedrosantos4030]

[@darnellpowell6212]

About to buy one of these for $1300

[@volvoenthusiastsgroup3386]

Congrats! Good luck with your new Swedish brick 🇸🇪👍

[@18_rabbit]

yeah taht's about right. i'm not gonna pay the 2500-3500 prices i'm seeing for 240K mile cars!

[@CoreyMills-l5t]

Yo man next time you have a situation with those injectors making that loud noise like that go buy yourself some marvels mystery oil pour it in your gas tank the entire bottle that's right and help me several times with that situation don't let nobody tell you that that doesn't work for Volvos it does it eats up the carbon and it lubricates the moving parts in the inside of the inside motor

[@tkremarkTK]

Next video, Don't forget the gas. ;) LOL

[@volvoenthusiastsgroup3386]

If I don’t forget the glass I’ll forget something else 😂

[@LEROADIAK]

I laughed at the gas part :D Whats the best gas, octane wise you can get in the US? Here in Germany you can get 102 octane.

[@tjnewell8108]

dope asf, mine a racecar tho

[@scrambaba]

nice car!

[@mathiasgnas329]

Bis 1993 war 4 loch ,ich restauriere grade einen ,super Auto

[@KKlepacki]

When this one is going for sale and price?

[@volvoenthusiastsgroup3386]

I’d like to think by the end of this month it will be ready. I still needs to get a couple thing shorted on it and put some miles on it to make sure its ready to hit the road again. Price I’m not entirely sure yet.

[@politie_jip112]

i have a volvo 850 2.0

[@CoreyMills-l5t]

Gone for a half an hour or hour drive backwards and forwards should help the thing drive better to burning off carbon as you drive you should see or smell the smoke coming out the back or burning off as you those those cars were built to be driven
