Re: Ash fouled plugs at 85k (10k late tune up) s60 2.5t

The deposits were white. UPDATE after 450 mile roadtrip... FILLED UP ON 87 Octane from BP before leaving. Didn't have any issues with acceleration. No hesitation. No smoke. Oil level was still full upon return. Average MPG was 28, mostly highway miles. Filled up with high octane from BP upon return....

Ash fouled plugs at 85k (10k late tune up) s60 2.5t

20191120_205000.jpg SEE IMAGES OF ALL 5 FOULED PLUGS pulled from 2012 Volvo s60 2.5t at 85,085 miles.

Re: 2005 S80 2.5T FWD, rough idle & stall

Re: 2005 v70 occasional almost stall while driving

My 05 s80 2.5T had a similar problem last year. Would sputter and stall at red light. Check engine light would come on shortly after restart. Immediately after the incident, I read the codes and it came back as a fuel rail pressure sensor, signal too high. I replaced it with new oem replacement, cle...

2005 S80 2.5T FWD, rough idle & stall

Hey! My s80 2.5T has just over 213k on the ticker. Ran well until today. Came back to my car after a couple hours at the gym. Was circa 80 degrees outside and sunny. Car turned over, sputtered, and stalled immediately. I restarted and it continued to sputter with eradic idle, but didn't stall. I rev...
