Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

It has finally been resolved, I ordered a set of volvo OE plugs and its been fine ever since. On the bosch plugs I was using the gap had kept getting changed on them somehow and that seems to have been my issue.

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

Nothing to do with your misfires but you really should run full synthetic. Better protection for hot turbos.

Check with ARD. Some people play with spark plug gap to cure misfires.

What color injectors are you running? I know some people change injectors with ECU mods.

Yes do check your intake ...

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

Using Bosch cap, rotor and plugs. I am using the ipd blue spark plug wire kit and the MSD ignition coil. I will check the spark plugs and re gap them just to be sure. I'm not getting any error codes when I drive it normal. Only when I get to around 10psi of boost or more it misfires and I just get ...

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

Honestly I have run out of ideas completely now, the fuel pressure was low at about 30-35psi. So I changed the fuel pump, the fuel pressure regulator, threw on a new fuel filter and absolutely no change. The car is running extremely rich according to the AFR gauge and it still cuts out and starts to ...

Re: 1995 850T5R Identifying the different manual transmissio

Any kind of hint is to where that is? I looked around on it and couldn't find anything unless its behind the driver side wheel, and i have to pull the plastic down to get a good view of it.

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

Turns out it was low fuel pressure, replaced the pump and currently waiting for a fuel pressure regulator that was on back order, and it should be good to go hopefully.

1995 850T5R Identifying the different manual transmissions

I recently picked up a '95 T5R that had a manual transmission swapped in it in about 2002 I believe, the guys I got it off of started parting it out for some reason. Basically it has everything left in it for a manual swap but not much else. I know the car was originally and auto, I was hoping ...

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

I have not actually pulled the cbv out to look at it but the whole turbo is pretty new. Its definitely not older than 2 years old. As for a boost leak I seem to be reading the correct amount except for when it misfires of coarse. But I did recently replace the pcv breather system and I'm wondering ...

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

Hmmm I may have to do another compression test with a new tester, mine is pretty old. I have been running part synthetic high mileage oil. And I was mistaken there is a fuel pressure regulator I was just a little confused by it not being directly on the fuel rail.

Re: 1998 S70 T5 Missing occasionally on wide open throttle

All the ignition components are fairly new too, it has be ungraded with the ipd kit (I think it's the msd coil and the blue wires). That's why I was leaning towards a fuel issue especially since it never misses unless you put your foot to the floor. I should probably add that I am running the 19t ...
