Re: 2004 XC90 T6 smoking at idle

Thanks! I'll let you know how I progress with this. Maybe I can make the photo tutorial for the 6 cylinder. :)

Re: 2004 xc90 ti smoking at idle

6 cylinder. ti means turbo- I believe. I have tagged that tutorial. It (5 cyl.) looks very similar to the six. Does anyone know if there are any differences I should look out for?

Thanks for responding Matt!

2004 XC90 T6 smoking at idle

Need to know if this is something I can do myself since the european repair shop wants $2500. He says PCV system is totally clogged with sludge. He'll need to drop the oil pan and replace the pcv hoses and valves. Then he says we'll check the one turbo that is loaded with oil. Says new turbo will ru...

Re: 1997 Volvo 850 starting problems

After this group convinced me to keep my 94 850 (135000 miles) I went about trying to solve the problem I had of a very very hard to start engine. Engine would crank and crank. Someone reccomended that I turn the key off and on several times to build up fuel pressure before trying to start. That see...

Non-Dealer Part Source

I just ordered a fuel pump and sepentine belt for my 1994 850 from Euro Parts Direct and I was also looking to get a new relay for the heater and air conditioning fan (when on high the blower cuts off and an inspection of the relay showed it was very hot and had scorch marks). Euro Parts Direct did ...

Re: 1997 850 T-5 idle

what about erratic idle when waiting for a traffic light to change? No problem with acceleration or driving at a constant speed.
94 850 wagon N/A
140000 miles

New plugs, wires, cap rotor, fuel relay, fuel filter, vacuum lines all replaced.

thanks,

Re: Fuel Pump Replacement

Thanks OL. Now that I decided to keep my 94 I am sure you will be seeing a lot of questions from me. I also have a 97 Landrover Discovery and if it wasn't for the Disco forum I would have driven that thing off a cliff. The best information comes from these forums. Understanding and knowing how to ke...

Re: Fuel Pump Replacement

I replaced my newer (18 months old) relay with my old one (original from 1994) that I had saved and it starts right up. I just couldn't believe it was the relay because I had just replaced it not too long ago. I am going to play it safe and order a new one, toss the one that is only 18 months old an...

Re: Fuel Pump Replacement

Hey Ozark Lee: I jumped the relay and it fired right up.
