Re: 2001 s60 running problem

No I don't have one and since I also own a XC70 it seems like a good idea!

Re: 2001 s60 running problem

Thanks Pete. There does seem to be a relationship to temperature-it only occurs when the engine is quite hot which would indicate to me that it isn't just a loose vacuum line--but I am only guessing! The vacuum ejector is on order from FCP but it looks like I missed their early Friday cut-off so it ...
