    Change the clutch on my fathers 460 last weekend (1.8i, 1993/94 hmm.....big
    job on a volvo isn't it!). Job went ok but tickover now seems very rough.
    Checked vac pipe and all the wires I can find.....any clues as to what I
    might have missed?


    Thanks,

    John

    Broken motor mount or mis-aligned motor/tranny that allows more of the
    engines vibrations to travel through the chassis and be felt?

    By "rough" I mean at tickover the engine is hunting badly

    Definately a vacuum leak i'd say. Did you disconnect the TPS (if its MFI) ?

    That was my first thought....its definitely re-connected..... I'll be back
    there at the w/e so will check and see if its blocked though.
