Great thread guys, my son in-laws V70 has the swirl valve issue, I found the actuator link hanging off the valve arm end.
I tested the valve end and the valeve have free movement but are leaking at the actuator end I have done a basic repair with the link to reattach it buy wrapping stainless wire around the arm end near the socket to increase the purchase. I have just driven 4 hour on the free way and its still attached.
I plan to replace the swirl valves soon and with the Torque figure and info on this thread I'm sure it will be a lot easier

One question if I may is there a specific kit other than what appears on eBay that I should get and how complete should it be? EG injector line seals
