aaaa1111 001.JPG I've attached a photo of my Broke Wagon. I've decided to throw in the towel on this project. I came to this site to, "Save the Brick"..... It's been on ongoing project for the past year. I've put alot of money with parts and paying a volvo mechanic over the past year. My ...

My ignition switch is bad. I have to turn it slightly to the left for the wipers and radio to work. Also the coolant temp sensor code is showing on the OBD 1.2.3 ???

Hello Bill I did get a fault code of 1-2-3. I also called IPD for some advice. They said the wiring harness that runs through the fire wall on the drivers side is known to cause problems. I still need to give that a good look. And also my ignition switch isn't working too well. You have to turn the ...

They replaced the Speed sensor and the fuel control unit. Like before it ran great for the first week. N...

I found a Volvo mechanic to check out the fuel pump problem with my daughters 89 240. He said there's a epoxy sealed section on top of the pump assembly that the wires run through. Some how the wires were damaged... hum?? well it works now..

I recently installed an intank fuel pump for my daughters sedan who lives about 200 miles from me. It ran good for about a week and then it started having stalling problems. I found a local Volvo mechanic and told him about the pump I had installed. He asked me if I had soldered the electrical conne...
