volvo 2030 oil leak throttle spindle

[wotayottie]

When someone was wittering on here about the oil leaks from their volvo 2030 engine, someone posted that he had had a leak from the shaft of the throttle control. He explained how he repaired it but I cant find that post.

Can the poster concerned please identify himself - I have exactly the same problem, and if I remember correctly it isnt a simple job

had that on my 2040.... had to take the complete front of the engine off....

don't loose the small springs in the timing case... find them and spend days working how it goes back together as those springs are critical to get the engine started i found out the hard way
