HI I was looking into a 98 s70 today I took it for a test drive the tranny shifted well but for some odd reason the engine wouldnt go over 4500 or so rpm and therefore wouldnt shift into 4th gear ??? weirdest thing. I can get the car for 1000, it just had the timing done and has newish tires it will probably need the some work the the pick up was pretty sluggish, and the shock might need to be replaced whats your opinion should I go for it ?? any info on the rpm issue also the abs light is on otherwise the car drove nicely.

thanks

my guess is I am looking at a stage 0 without the timing any clues how much that will cost me if I do it myself,
