Volvo Repair: volvo 1995 stalling and stalling, volvo lovers, air volume
Questionwe have a 1995 850 standard 4D sedan with 256K. it started stalling & it has no diagnostic plug in (?)for info so we have had the vacuum hoses checked, fuel filter replaced, air volume control camshaft sensor replacd & the o2 sensor today. it drove fine for 10 miles then stalled. if it sits for 2-3 min.it will go 1-2+ miles. after sitting all nite it will go the farthest. help...we are desperate. we are lifetime volvo lovers too but this has been a drag!
AnswerGreg and Linda, Yes there are 2 diagnostic ports over by the washer resevoir fill. One is A and the other is B They have covers on them. The first thing is to scan for codes and secondly I would have the fuel pressure check. With 256K I would wonder if that is the original fuel pump in there. For information, I have never seen a Volvo fuel filter get clogged. When they are changed every 30 or 60 thousand miles, they will never get clogged. Like I said, locate the port and scan. If your car doesnt have the 2 ports there, then the car is a early 96 and then the port would be under the ashtray where it says OBD 2. That is also covered. Roger
