    aq125b volvo steering

    I have a 1986 17 foot invader with a volvo 4 cylinder, she's has armstrong stearing in it...pretty hard for the kids to turn. Can I put in hydraulic steering, if so how would I go about doing this? Any ideas for or against would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    volvo carb

    I'm looking for a solex 44 pal-5 downdraft carb. It looks like the one I have is toast. The carb is for a 1986 volvo AQ125B 4 cylinder. Any ideas on where I can get one, or substitute a different one in its place would be greatly appreciated. thanks

    invader problem

    I recently purchased a 1986 invader, I took it out for a test run when I bought it...worked fine. The next time I took it out I blew a timing belt. I replaced the timing belt and now it wont run. I made sure the no1 piston was at tdc on the compression stroke, lined up the accessorie drive gear...
