Fuel pump relay on these cars isn't just a normal relay. It have some chips,capacitors and electronics inside. When it starts to misbehave it is doing just that you described. Sensitive electronics inside is sensitive to high temperatures.When it cooled down it behaved normally. Only new or used Vol...

Put new fuel filter and fixed fuel relay back on 850 > No start, read codes and have one for RPM sensor no signal. (To repeat.. car stalled previously and did run weakly so might been same problem all along) It is being crumpy and asking more attention after 4 months sitting clearly. I will name it...

Only connection loose was the one that went to the coolant relay the one in the middle yellow & yellow-white wire Found online the ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM & TRACTION CONTROL 1995 Volvo 850 https://www.volvoclub.org.uk/tech/service/850/AntiLockBrakeSystemAndTractionControl.pdf Even thought it'...

That was a special edition for the Finnish market.

That cap doesn't look to be worn, but rather it has deposits on it. I'd bet the rotor is what was worn. When I re-newed my ignition, my new cap hadn't arrived yet. I cleaned the original cap, but the rotor had metal missing. The car ran fine with a new rotor and cleaned cap. I did eventually get a n...

Very nice, Aleksi!

Apologies if you got a "rate limit" message and a temporary block. I'm working to fine tune the methods I use to keep bot swarms away. It's not easy. There is no "block bad actors, allow normal users" button. If this has happened to you, please email me and let me know - matt@mat...

This is fine. Anyway, 1.00 is not VOLTS, it's Lambda, the stoichometric fuel ratio, stoich is good. Anything above lambda 1.00 is considered LEAN. Anything below 1.00(such as 0.98) is considered rich, for a wide-band oxygen sensor. All fuels require lambda 1.0 except in high RPM where liquid fuels h...

Awesome wine glass holder.

I’ve got FWD parts pulled off Shagg. How far off I87 are you and which exit?
