I'm sorry to dissapoint you but this may be the Head Gasket which won't be cheap, but there is a possibilty it could also be the Water Pump or Thermostat. The chances are that it would be the Head Gasket as they are prone on the petrol engines. Hope this helps
Torque settings for FL6 Volvo
to RUN in a head gasket,u torque the head bolts to specs.you then run engine for specified amount of time, then again torque head bolts to specs. most shop manuels will give you 2 toque settings.
New head bolts must be used Stage1. 25Nm Stage2. +90 degrees Stage3. +90 degrees Stage4. +90 degrees.
If there are 6 bolts per side,all the same angle into the head. 3/8 bolts are 30-35 ft. lbs.
