A
AND Books
so, driving my "new" 1990 245 today, i heard a very wierd sound,
something like a deisel klunking, at first methought that it came
from surrounding traffic... then, alas! it was my car! uh-oh cell
phone was with my wife... now what? it was persistent... sounding
like a bad muffler. after several stops, look-unders, i was baffled...
after 30+yrs of volvoness, i thought i knew it all! weirdest was
when my distributor cap cracked and ignited the center rubber mount
from a way-overheated orange-glowing catalytic converter... nah!
i wasn't gonna get suckered again...
answer: the rear door speaker was doing its unpredictable crackling
sound... adjust the fm radio dial... stoopid! sometimes you just
cannot identify a problem... do less. learn!
