Re: 1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

Those splices were sitting bathed in fuel in the in-tank pump? Yikes ! Buy a lottery ticket this morning... Fixes like that do make diagnosis tough. They also speak to a certain lack of awareness on PO or mechanics part. I don't recall ignition parts life for your model but I think it is about 3000...

Re: 1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

Both pumps were operating in tandem. Whoever put the in-line pump in ran off of the positive and negative leads going to the in-tank pump. So, one was pushing to the other, the other was both pulling and pushing at the same time. It is extremely odd that anyone wouldn't have fixed it right from the ...

Re: 1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

Cap rotor is Bosch. Spark plug wires say 'Volvo Bougicord Class C-1'. About 5 years ago, the distributor cap was replaced. Don't remember if the wires were changed at the same time. When I had my mechanic look at it, he pointed something really odd out. There was a secondary inline fuel pump put in ...

Re: 1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

I'll check the fuel rail and I'll take a gander at the coil and let you know what's in it exactly. Our mechanic ran a diagnostic on the cam and crank sensors, both checked out. I misspoke about resetting the computer. I meant reprogramming it. Volvo said that they've had periodic programming changes...

Re: 1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

Temperature gauge rides right at about where it always rides, cooling fan kicks on as needed. It is the 2.4T. P0302 and P0112. I am absolutely positive that the P0302 was solved when I replaced the spark plugs. The gap on the plug from cylinder 2 was nearly .85! Well over twice the gap, the electrod...

1998 S70 Stalls when hot outside

I have been using this site for years to get advice and I have finally found a problem that I have yet to solve. For the last month my car has been stalling out every time the temperature gets above 85° outside. I have been chasing this for some time and will try to include everything that has occur...
