      This is what is missing from the car shows that have an hour long episode and then cram everything in, which feels rushed and the most interesting parts are left out! So this is why I visit youtube and watch channels like this one, way way better :)

    Do not install the cam cover with impact gun, use the "T" tools that you used for removing it. The threads are easy to strip and then you cry with new oil leaks:) Same goes for timing tensioner, aluminum is not grateful for impacting.

    • @reallyhappenings5597
      @reallyhappenings5597 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Even the plastic trim covers get a 1/4" torque wrench on my white block, and all fasteners are tightened by hand. But that's because I'm going to daily my late dad's '02 V70 for the rest of my life, so avoiding thread damage to the aluminum castings is of particular concern.

    • @reallyhappenings5597
      @reallyhappenings5597 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    • @schrodingerscat8621
      @schrodingerscat8621 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      I agree. As a guy who worked on Volvos and Saabs for more than a decade, I was feeling good about things until I saw the impact pulling down the cam cover without the tools in the spark plug threads. Those bolts need to be torqued down, because overtightening them can influence the tolerance of the cams. I’m a bit stressed out right now.

    • @cptbeeeeee

    When I was sick in bed, I discovered your channel and I would like to say that despite the current 35.200 subscribers, this really feels like a 300k or 500k channel. The quality of the video is very good, not too much fuss, calm music and someone who doesn't act like a know-it-all.
    My sincere compliments!
    Doing something wrong is of course incredibly sh*tty, but completely natural. As my uncle always says; those are study costs.

    Power tools are for taking OFF the hardware. Hand tools and torque wrench are for putting ON hardware.

    You will have to redo your timing belt a third time for two reasons: 1. You forgot the rear cambelt cover and you need to pull the water pump and belt roller to get that on. 2. You "official seal installation tool" does not make certain than the VVT pulley seals are in the head the correct distance, like the 90 dollar factory tool does. If you put them in too far or too shallow, your VVT hubs will leak oil. You could take the gamble, but since you are going to pull it off anyway and the engine is out now, it is hardly any trouble to verify you are in the correct distance.

    @17:39, just a tip. In the future, get one of those small sponge rollers and dab the sealant over the cover (and not the head). Then roll all over the flat surface of the cover so it creates a thin layer. You don't want to much either, I can't really tell but the amount you put on looks WAY to much. Hope it helps for the future :) Good work!

      ​No, it looks like he applied the correct Volvo sealant, which has nowhere near the locking power of loctite, and remains a tiny bit flexible. Also the actual amount he applied might be a little much, but it doesn't matter, the excess gets churned into the oil: it's not RTV. ​@@ASDASD34RDFS

    I think you're going to have to redo the timing again, unfortunately - you didn't put the inner timing cover on before the pullies and belt. Pretty sure I did the exact same thing when I refreshed the engine on my S60 a couple years back. I also remember that crank "locking" tool being a joke lol, it's not your fault it moved.
    Anyway, I've been really enjoying the videos, I've been wanting to manual swap my S60 since before it ran lmao. It's nice to see someone else around my age interested in these cars. Keep up the good work 👍

  • @nolanh4104
    @nolanh4104 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The crankshaft locking tool locks against the number 5 rod which means it only locks one way. If you spin the engine the other way the rod is free to move.
    The cam gears have little marks on them and it doesn’t exactly matter how they go back on but i also does. If you put the plastic cover back on, the little marks should line up with the marks on the cover which would ensure you aren’t for example half a tooth off on the belt which would leave the belt less tensioned on the drive side.
    Also definitely use the same tools to install the cam cover that you used to take it off. The cam seals should sit out a little further, almost flush with the head and valve cover.
    The timing belt tensioner should be set depending on how warm or cold it is outside. Room temp is in the middle. I would also definitely lube up all the o-rings before installing them. Glad to see someone making quality videos on these cars!

    Great job for someone who's giving it a try ,
    , as a volvo tech with 23 years of experience,
    When applying the sealant to the head , thin bead applied and NEVER , Never spread out !
    The sealer will do its tracking fill via physics ! This will leak if spread out like finger painting, not now but in future ,
    I resealed sooooooo many repairs if other garages ,
    and trust me, the head or cam cover will definitely change on a micron level it's shape whilst it's bolted down , when thermal dynamics gets added !!!!

    Back in the '70's, my Fiat 124 Sport Coupe needed valve seals, so I decided to do a valve job. It's an interference engine, and I got the timing belt a few teeth off (it jumped when I released the tensioner, and I didn't notice). Got it all back together, didn't try a gentle crank, bent the valves. Tore it apart again, did it right and took it for a test drive: clouds of oil smoke and got a warning from the state patrol. Third time's the charm, replaced the rings and it ran fine. Note that this engine used shims to adjust the valves, so extra fun. A great learning experience.

    Absolutely brilliant editing and the tenacity you have to do this much work learning about this Volvo is surreal almost!!! Great job bro!! HOWEVER, these t5s are known for having head gasket and cylinder issues due to the ,035 gaps between cylinders.(This is usually caused by pre-detonation, a better intercooler shim the block and tune will take care of this) I'm surprised you didn't take the head off and place in .o35 feeler gauge to shim the block???.. But hey man, kudos to you for working your ass off and educating so many people. Cheers!

    I think i would have never watched a car mechanic yt chanal if it wasnt for you willem. I drive a 1998 V70 AWD and i also had alot of problems with the motor and oil leaking. Watching your videos gives me a better understanding of what it takes to work on these things. Love the process, even if i dont understand all of it at times :) Keep it up mane

    Just noticed I wasn't subscribed after following the whole series, feels fresh to have a channel not begging for likes or subs. I kinda feel bad now for not doing it earlier, not pushing anything, honest videos with good editing. Keep it up !

    I'm about to pull the engine out to re-gasket it and had already searched about the VVT hub o-rings and assumed I had no choice but to buy new hubs.... Thank you for the FCP gasket kit info. That was pretty cool :)

    Much respect for undertaking all of these projects, especially on a P2. If you haven't already put it back in the car, I'd recommend shimming the block. You did a massive amount of work to not shim while its out of the car. Keep it up!

  • @bobsykes
    @bobsykes 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Probably a nerdy question, but I'm kind of curious how you keep track of all the parts you remove, say, even all the hundres of bolts, and what process you follow to put them all back in place the same way again, and in the right order. It would be interesting if you'd share a bit of your methodology for doing that. What an over the top project! There's no way I can possibly tune out until we see this thing on the road again!

      Personally, I use labeled ziploc bags and include sticky notes inside each bag with small diagrams/extra info if needed.

    Nice work! You're going to love how much this swap changes the car. I've never used a crankshaft locking tool and it's probably not needed. I would not have adjusted the cams on the hubs. They should go back to their original orientation if possible. Look for the 3 bolts and the marks they left on the cam.

    Did you forget the brown outer oil pump seal you removed? (The one just behind the pulley at 28:17).
    And be sure to check/clean the pcv system + lines and coolant hoses at the back when the engine is still out! Saves a lot of problems.
    Awesome content!

    Im sure its too late to say but at Napa they sell aluminum brightener when you are cleaning your parts they turn out so good, love the work so far and keep up the good work!
