1990 volvo 760 will not get above 3000 rpm
My volvo will not get above 3000 rpm. My husband thinks the turbo is clogged and is about to replace it. We started having issues when he had to change the throttle cable because the old one was frayed and broken. When it gets to 3000, it drops. I do not think anything is wrong with the turbo, and i...

Re: 1990 760-wont run!
Checked fuel pump wiring last night. Just noticed that the ignition coil was very loose in bracket. Compared to old coil its much smaller than the old one...put the old one back on and as long as we held the wires on the old coil it fired up over and over back to back...the new coil sloshes when sha...

Re: 1990 760-wont run!
Replaced at the same time when the fuel pump left him stranded he noticed the hose had melted and been sucked into the turbo so he cleaned the visible remnants of the hose and replaced the hose and fuel pumps

1990 760-wont run
I have a 1990 760 turbo, last week the air intake hose melted and I believe the melted rubber too was sucked into the turbo. My husband changed the hose, now it will start-Sometimes! Runs rough will cut off if you don't stay on the gas....and it will run (kinda) for 3 mins, at which point it doesn't...
