Re: 1990 Volvo 740 wagon GL won't start

Have you tried to change the crank sensor? I just had a similar issues with my 92 940 turbo. Changing the crank sensor was my last hope before I was going to throw in the towel. Sure enough once I changed it the car has always started no problem. btw its not that hard to change. I believe its a 10mm...

Re: Brake Booster Replacement Trouble

Come to find out I was sold the wrong booster. Everything was the same as the original booster I had except the booster shaft was about 3 inches too long. Once I got the correct booster in hand, I installed it and everything is working out perfectly right now.

Re: Brake Booster Replacement Trouble

I tried the "wiggle" but its a no go. I know what you mean cause I tried it on the old one as well. I went back to the part store and no several other part stores, no one seems to know how to adjust it. I think my last hope is just to try and get another booster to see if I can match it up...

Brake Booster Replacement Trouble

Hi All,

I have a 1992 Volvo 940 Turbo and I just replaced my brake booster. The problem I'm having is reinstalling the master cylinder. It seems the brake booster shaft is too long to fit in the master cylinder (Did I buy the wrong booster?).

Thank you in advance.

Brandon

Re: 92 240 No Start

Aloha, I just had a similar issues with my 940. Cranks and cranks but no start. I changed both fuel pumps and filters, changed the MAS, the fuel injection relay and the radio suppression relay. Come to find out it was the crank relay. I would definitely recommend changing that before you attempt to ...

Re: 1992 940 Turbo Not Starting!! (RESOLVED)

Im happy to report I have SUCCEEDED in getting my 92 940 turbo working. This is a glorious day! Come to find out it was the Crank Sensor. Amazing how something so simple in design can be the Achilles Heel. For those people who are having a difficult time in locating the crank sensor (As I did) its l...

Re: 1992 940 Turbo Not Starting!!

I read online someone mentioned to try and replacing the Crank Sensor. I bought a OEM sensor from Volvo but I have no idea where it goes. Does any one have a picture of where this goes on a 92 940? Thanks in advance.

Re: 1992 940 Turbo Not Starting!!

Here is the latest on my 940. Plain and simple its not working. It cranks and I can hear the fuel pumps but it will not start. I replaced both fuel pumps and added new filters. I bought a brand new OEM radio suppression relay from Volvo, fuses are okay, fuel ignition relay I can feel it clicking. No...

Re: 1992 940 Turbo Not Starting!!

Aloha All, Thanks for the info, it gave me the confidence to tackle this issue by myself. I could not see spending close to $1K on this repair. I got the pump installed and car started first try no issues...except now the gas gauge stopped working and the low fuel light stays lit. Guess I'm going ba...

Re: 1992 940 Turbo Not Starting!!

Just got my car back from the local hackcanic. Bill came out to $200 and he didn't do squat and told me I had a bad fuel pump in the gas tank. Im about 99% sure he's correct considering I covered everything else. Im not sure how he tested it considering he never took a look at the pump to test if it...
