That sounds about right to me, if i remember correctly mine was about 158psi but my engine has only done 42k now.
Remap remind me is yours a ME7 engine? or does it have a throttle cable

Hi Simon ...I have the throttle cable
I was hoping my readings were not too bad.....Haynes I think said 11-13 bar ,that made me think as mine is only 10.3 bar (if my maths is correct)

Took the offer off Volvo parts on line in the end, for a 40mm lowered springs and shocks set £250 now to get around to fit it..where did I put those spring compressors I bought from Hafrauds in 1976 ?????

Talk to Tim Williams about a map on your car mate

[kim]

Thanks for that ..I have left Tim a PM........

LPT maps off the shelf ?... No need for rolling roads then? if its at the right price cannot complain

Must thank Garry as well for his offer on suspension, but I thought new all round might be best, cheers Kim
