Plugs are clean, but you can smell the gas comming out of the exhaust, plenty of spark too.

Help! Won't start

Hello, I need everyone's help! I gave my 850 to my Uncle in Pennsylvania in July. He started the car up on friday (raining) and the car started up rough, but smoothed out after it warmed up. The next day the car would not start at all. When he cranks it over the car pop and wants to start, but nothi...

Even if there is no code for the 02 sensor you think it should be repaired?

Code 113: Short Term fuel mixture too rich

Hi All, My buddy has an 93 850GLT that had an exhaust leak which he fixed. The car ran poorly when he had the leak and his check engine light came on. The computer is showing Code 113 (A2): Short Term fuel mixture too rich. The car is also idling poorly, almost stalls at stops then revs slightly. Ho...

Thanks Mitch,

I'm going to check out that U-Joint. There is only one site online that I can find it for sale and it's only $10 less than the dealer.

Anyone else have any recommendations where to buy it discount? I'm a broke grad student, so every buck counts!

Thanks for the advice. The funny thing is that the shop that replaced the rack checked the lower steering knuckle and they said that it was moving freely. Under load would it behave differently then when it is manipulated off the rack? We also replaced the front sway bar bushings and the links which...

More Power steering problems

Hi All, We were having a steering problem on our 1993 850GLT with 193K miles. When turning left or right at about 15 degrees the steering would bind up until you used enough force and then it would let go and you would oversteer into the next lane. Very unsettling. I took the car to my local shop wh...

Steering Rack

Hello all my fellow Volvo Lovers, I'm looking for the best place to find a rebuilt steering rack for my 1993 850GLT. I've seen them remanufactured by Maval, Biltron and TRW. Has anyone purchased any of these brands? Anyone know the cheapest place to purchase a rebuilt rack? I've found one for $224 a...

Radio wires

Good luck and don't let your hands freeze while you are working on it. It was 13 degrees here last night in Seneca Falls.
