Re: Could this be why I’m still getting code P0117? 1998 S70

2021 summer I replaced the ECT sensor after heat/resistance testing to solve a hot start problem from info posted here. At the same time i cut back the corroded signal wires beyond the splice connector a few inches and crimp spliced those connections. Recently had a few coolant problems and leaks an...

Re: car key locked/stuck in ignition slot, can't be removed

My 98 does that in cold weather overnight even running ok. I have used a hair dryer set on it for several minutes and this frees it up every time. Some very tight tolerances must be shrinking and keeping it locked. Heat might help.

Re: Is there a way to test a 98 EVAP system?

The p0442 code and EVAP system generally. I have a smoke machine which works fine. Where does it input to the EVAP system to leak test? Are there multiple locations which should be tested? 1998/1999 S70 non turbo.

Re: 2001 v70 cranks, but no spark...at all

Just fixed mt 1998 with same problem. Took a while. Changed cam ps and crank ps and coil with cheap online parts. Finally was getting a weak spark but plenty of starter motor power. Put a new battery in and cleaned terminals yesterday and all ok at once. Had to run some fuel out the rail end to get ...

Re: 1998 S70 non-turbo cranks but no spark

Finally was getting a weak spark with plenty of starter motor action. Changed battery and cleaned cables and all ok. Test drive was good with plenty of power. Apparently fixed.

It finally made a weak spark but plenty of starter motor spin. Put in a new battery and cleaned terminals and started ok. Good test drive and power. Fixed

1998 S70 non-turbo cranks but no spark

No spark at coil wire. Replaced cam and crank position sensors and coil with ignition module. Still no spark. Checked main engine relay and it is working ok. Gas is getting into the cylinders and also no firing with carb cleaner shot. What else is needed to get fire to the coil? How does one trace it?

Multiple misfire codes were read. First checked fuel pressure which was 38 approx. psi running roughly. Pulled fuel rail...
