hey guys i have a 2000 volvo xc awd and it does exactly the same thing.. i was thinking there is a check valve in the pump as well. so this confirms my theory. is there any way to have the pump rebuilt for much cheaper so they can just replace the check valve inside the pump rather than put a new ...

does anyone know how to get the lines off the fuel pressure regulator?? they are like shrink wrapped on or something not like normal rubber lines with clamps or connectors. i really dont want to have to buy the whole assembly from volvo when i can get the regulator from eeuroparts for hundreds less ...

pauloil how long have you had this problem exactly? cuz i had a ford explorer with a bad fuel pressure regulator/check valve since they are the same thing, and it kept blowing through fuel pumps because the pump kept trying to keep pressure in the lines and ends up burning out. only thing that fixed ...

ok guys i dropped the tank finally since the weather was good. what a pita!!! there is a fuel pressure regulator ABOVE the gas tank. what kind of idiot designed this system?? to get the tank out you have to take the exhaust out as well as the drive shaft and then the lower control arm supports on ...

on mine the fuel filter and anything resembling that part is behind the right rear tire and very tucked up near the rear axle. very hard to see i am gonna take some pics and put them up here for you to see. i will be under the car sunday taking whatever i can down to figure out where all these lines ...

is like volvo serious you have to take down the damn rear driveshaft which looks to be a pita as well as the exhaust which i dont even know how you would do without taking the rear diff out to get the gas tank out.. this is ridiculous also my tank looks like it has two pumps. the tank spans the ...

Man this is pretty crazy. Even in '99 there are fuel pressure regulators for a v70XC here is the page with a pic from EEuroparts.com http://eeuroparts.com/productdetail.aspx?searchResults=1&code=7879

actually i went to this site and they say it does have one for 98-00 v70 turbo models so i guess ...

also i knew what you meant about the clamp on your fuel pressure regulator not your pressure tester sorry i gave you that impression i must have got something messed up when i typed in my response lol .. and yes apparently what i read on other forums about these cars was wrong.. totally my fault but ...

also no codes on the car.. it runs mint after it starts too.. no drivability issues what so ever. stomp on the gas and it goes no hesitation or anything. no black smoke when it starts either like it is running to rich from a flooding cylinder

i looked even on fcpgroton and they only list one for 98 models and it doesnt even look like a pressure regulator. i only stated that there wasnt on on 95 and up because i read that info on a forum just like this one.. but still i dont see any for 2000 i will check out your link and see what else ...
