I agree, the 90 degree hood opening is quite welcome.

I use collapsable chocks:

i change out filters on a routine basis, yet you may encounter bad diesel, a couple of primary filters won't hurt, as will a bottle of cetane boost, fuel conditioner type stuff.
Thank you so much for the replies!

Oh! I forgot about the EPC! Will do it later, as been using the computer too much...

Well, how do they grip? Are they strong enough? I usually get my stuff off Amazon because I have credit with them and I like having reviews. The reviews said rubber was the only ones that held and didn't crush.

I already ordered Redline per the research I did over several sites, so... But, what is super helpful is the Biobor. Will order it. Be good as have some old diesel I was concerned about organic matter and especially lubricity.

Mind telling me how you added a thumbnail? Might be the way to add pictures.

The wrenches are ordered. It was a cultural communication difficulty and lack of experience on my part (if you are going to pay, call them instead of email).

The Biobor has now been ordered.

Now got to go work on the Volvo. Not sure if I want to fix the seat or install a new thermostate. Decisions, decisions, decisions...
