98 V70 Troubleshoot Cat Converter

Hi We have a 98 V70 Wagon. Previously a OBD11 code came up PO140. We erased the code. Drove about 300 miles. Then it started losing power and stalling. My husband thinks it is the cat converter. He started taking it apart. The tip of the o2 sensor in front is pure white. The tip of the o2 sensor in ...

Re: 98 Volvo v70 No start Air pump Solenoid

I used to own a 95 Volvo 850.....loved that car but it couldn't pass tough Calif. smog...it wasn't exempt from the readiness monitors.
I wanted to change the car in my profile and can't see where you can do that.

Re: 98 Volvo v70 No start Air pump Solenoid

How can we tell that the temperature sensor itself is bad? I don't know if this is correct but I understand in Calif...the 98 Volvo v70 is exempt from the readiness monitors in the smog test. Certain Volvos do not have to go through the drive cycles. I called a smog shop yesterday and was told this....

Re: 98 Volvo v70 No start Air pump Solenoid

Thank you, we will check that out. I do smell a slight fuel smell at the tailpipe. We borrowed an OBD11 Code reader....no codes came up it said PASS...But when we checked the IM Monitor...everything said n/a except Comp Component which said ok. Before when we used it...there was several incomplete.....

Re: 98 Volvo v70 No start Air pump Solenoid

Thank you for your reply. I guess we will rule out the air pump Solenoid then. It is just strange how it started and drove then 10 minutes later it won't start. I wonder if the Anti-theft code needs resetting since he removed the battery and put it back in. One button on radio keeps blinking. Then w...

98 Volvo v70 No re-start? MVSOLVED BAD MAF

Bought a 98 Volvo V70 a few weeks ago. Been having problems ever since. First there was a hole in the radiator. Got a used radiator at Pick n Pull that my husband installed. Engine was very dirty so he cleaned it as well. He just finished all this after 6 days and I got to drive it to the store. It ...

Re: 95 Volvo 850 No Start No fuel

The Pink and Green 103 relays don't work on the car. My husband bypasses the relay and there are no problems *(starts every time) Ordered a yellow 5 pin relay on ebay...and have been driving the Volvo without the relay until we get it. Will it hurt anything if we drive it without the fuel pump relay...
