Had problems with pier burgs in the past but nothing like this, I've just done the belts etc on the engine. New carb going on this week, an I likely to experience more...

Re: Inherited Volvo 340 GLE S/R
This is my car now! passed her not with only 1 advisory beginning of this month and after a service drove back to derbshire without missing a beat! She's had a good service and a clean up and is looking awsome! I'd love to know more about her owners and history etc if you can?
