Re: 850 1995 Idling up and down
... But, after have waited 15 mn idling, the coolant gauge, to the top, came to the bottom and get again to the top. Ect or it's wiring are bad.

Re: 850 1995 Idling up and down
ECT sensor or it's wiring.
Check from both....sensor side and engine wiring loom side.

Re: 850 1995 Idling up and down
all right Guys. I will order one to Volvo. Thanks. If your old ECT was original and was working properly...you might re-install it and see how the engine runs.

Re: Tire Sizing For 2 Cars
P80 ideal offset is a factory one which is ET 43. On 850 you can go with ET 49 and 7J as long as you don't go wider than 205(205/50 or 55 16). I have factory alloy wheels from gen.I S80 as a winter set on my 850. 215 can't fit because of a strut clearance on front. Not sure about s,v70. However...6 ...

Re: 850 1994 Auto sedan engine miss under load
Port A6?
https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/read-codes-volvo-850/
A1 1-1-4 should be sorted out.
It's program selector open or short circuit to supply.
I just saw that your car is '94 850 GLE.
GLE in EU is 10v car...should be in AUS too.
Is it 2.0 or 2.5?

Re: 850 1994 Auto sedan engine miss under load
Is it 10v or 20v?
Ignition cables are not interchangeable between these two engines.
About transmission codes...it could be PNP switch or S,E & W switch on center console.
