I manage to finally come around to install the fuel pump and the car is running again :). Engine is running too hot if the car is not moving so I got this from the chop shop:



Out with the old fan clutch:



In with the volvo stuff:



Btw today I was doing the headlamp wiring when suddenly saw smoke near the fusebox. Turns out wiper motor is the culprit. Adehhhhhhhhh!!!
