My issues have returned *Bang head
I'm having a starting issue again. Last time replacing the plugs fixed the problem instantly. What happens is, it starts right away, no hesitation, but immediately runs very rough. after 15-30 seconds, it settles out and runs great. not a single issue after its warm. Even if I drive to the store ...

Re: Rough idle after cold start
update: Looks like new spark plugs solved the problem. Swapped them out today and baddabing! Problem solved. I was thinking today (this is what happened to my lawn mower) hard to start after having old gas, it was running rich and it fouled the plug. So I thought, maybe the seafoam caused my Volvo ...

Re: Rough idle after cold start
No CEL's, although I DID just run seafoam through the gas tank. It runs worlds better (after the rough initial idle works its way out) Does that help narrow it down?

Rough idle after cold start
Only for about 30 seconds, then clears itself out and car runs great. When I start it in the morning it sputters and idles real rough, then just stops and runs perfectly normal?!

Re: Issue With my 850 :(
So I had a leak from my oil pan plug and replaced the washer. I also am going to replace the one I. The fill cap. Would either of those give me a random low oil pressure light? I also put about half a can of seafoam in the crankcase and drove to and from work (5 miles) then added the rest and let ...

Re: Issue With my 850 :(
I am using an Oem filter. The issue originally happened before this oil change. It seems to only be happening when I drive the car over 20 minutes. The car acts totally normal during my small commutes to and from work. Frustrated!
