You will need to remove the serpentine belt from around all your components (ac, alternator, Power Steering pump, pulley, crankshaft). Then there are two 14mm bolts holding the alternator onto the assembly shaft. The manual suggests you remove the power steering pump first and then the alternator, so that you have more room. But you can also do it without. I would really suggest buying a manual before doing this. It is a simple procedure that will take a shade tree mechanic about 2.5 hours to complete.
The alternator on a 1995 Volvo 960 is changed by disconnecting the negative battery post, removing the alternator wiring harness, loosening the retaining bolts, and taking the belt off. The alternator can then be completely unbolted and a new alternator put in its place.

I have 2 earlier 960's. The oxygen sensor - the lambda is situated on the catalytic converter, which is below the driver seat on a right hand drive car. It has a slight angle to it where it fits into the cat. To change it is quite straightforward. There are a couple of photos on my own website: wwww.glennsmart.btinternet.co.uk Just click on 'Volvo 960' in the drop down menu and then click on the button 'Go there!
It is located on the side of the thermostat housing on the 1996 Model 960 .( earlier models differ) If I remember correctly it is a 13 mm Nut . Just disengage the connector and unscrew. You will loose a bit of collant unless you drain some off first. regards
I own a 1989 745 Turbo Wagon &, a 1996 960 both absolutely trouble free.
