Wow - Ozark Lee I really appreciate the offer! But; IT RUNS! While my daughter had the car a few months ago (see old post) she had the same experience I did. I went back through those post a carefully read them again. This last time when it happened to me I tried the oil in the cyclinders and it did ...

I have thrown in the towel. Nothing seems to get this car going again. I put some starting fluid in three of the cyclinders to see if it would fire. No. I had a spare CMP so put that on. No. Rechecked the vaccum hoses. Nothing. I going to have the car towed to the dealer tomorrow. I'm a little ...

since I had cleaned the IAC I checked it out with the multimeter. It is with in specs so it would seam to be ok. I don't know why cleaning the throttle body would have changed anything. Letting the car sit tonight and trying again tomorrow. If it wont start up I' thinking I will pull about 3 spart ...

If it makes any difference, I had the battery unhooked during the cleaning/ re install.

Have not had the chance to test anything yet. Last night I cleaned the IAC ( was a little dirty; inside "rolled easyly after cleaning), cleaned the throttle body (it was not really dirty as I had cleaned this not that many miles ago) Checked the vaccume lines one last time and were ok. This morning ...

I don't know what is right or wrong . My daughters 850 has 160,000+ miles on it. Have changed oil twice in it now with high mileage synthetic with no known problems so far. Started using it in my wifes 04 Grand Prix and I swear it's using more oil now. My 06 S80 Volvo runs synthetic too. Have had ...

checking on a known good one to try. If it solves the problem I will still buy a new one. Have someone coming over this week end to show me how to use the muti tester as I haven't a clue. Looked at the manual I have and it tells me to check the wiring diagram. Also something I do not understand ...

Any directions to test one (not just unpluging it) with a multi tester would be greatly appreciated. Pictures work great!

I used CRC Mass Air Flow sensor cleaner. Did not touch the sensor. I'm going to have to figure out how to use the multi tester. Maybe even get out the shop manual.

1995 non turbo 850. At idle the RPMs are going up and down. Wait long enough and it will die. White smoke (more than normal; 163,000 mi.) from tailpipe and black carbon on the drive from the tailpipe. Check engine light is on. Put the scan tool on it and it says, "P0103 Mass or volume air flow ...
