1993 850 non-turbo missing under load
Hello, i know this thread is a bit old, but i was wondering if you could describe the "miss" you refer to, i'm having a (maybe) similar issue where my 1993 850 (non-turbo) starts and idles fine, but as soon as i start driving it (at low speeds) engine will sometimes react to the gas pedal and ...

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Hello, it's been one and a half years, but i thought i would make a final entry here for anyone else looking at this thread.
Unfortunate news: I never did find a fix for this issue, since the problem started it's been a 100% checking/observing, so no new parts or modifications were done relating to ...

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Hey GoinFor300KMi, i'm not getting any engine codes, but i will take a look and verify that the TPS sensor is hooked up properly. On the 93' 850 it's OBD-I where you can pull codes by watching a blinking red LED in the engine compartment.

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Hey Sariano,
When my 850 does the revving it will start without a problem. You might check your main relay, it's mounted right above the radiator under the lip of the plastic cover that sits across the front of the engine compartment behind the hood latch.
I had a problem where my car would ...

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Thanks for the thought z31jaime.
I have actually tried pulling the connection to the IACV and it didn't cause the revving to stop. But i hadn't tried looking at the temp gauge or the temp sensor itself. Looking for this gremlin has been such a pain since it only happens periodically. I've been ...

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Thanks Jerrymcc, your comment gives me a new place to look. I've had the intake and some of the throttle related components on and off enough that it seems very plausible that i could have introduced a weak point somewhere. I'll post what i find.
Thanks again everyone, - jreidko

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Good suggestion, i actually pulled the entire cruise control control circuit when it first started happening thinking maybe it was related, but it didn't have any effect.
Not sure about the alternator, but the idle speeds at start up and at warm up and when in neutral have all been really ...

Re: 93 Volvo 850 engine revs high by itself
Well, its been a while and i'm no closer to finding the culprit on this issue.
The IAC valve is good working order, removed it and it was pretty clean, but sprayed it out with carb cleaner and also experimented with it disconnected entirely. It ultimately had no effect on this intermittent behavior ...

Re: 850 Antenna Mast Won't Pull Out
Had a very similar experience to Saratoga850. The telescoping antenna mast itself has a short outer sleeve that fits into the top of the antenna mast housing. On my busted antenna mast it was fused solid inside the housing. With some vice grips and lot of yanking the telescoping mast finally came ...
