Final Post a bit delayed. After my last post I made a 1/4 mile trip around the block and all was well. Car would not fir the next morning. After some extensive digging on the interweb, it was noted that there is a plug behind the driver side headlight, larger plug with maybe 6-10 wires in it. The in...

Update: Went to the local salvage yard today and grabbed a handful of relays and the ecu. Ecu made no change, changed out the relay(timing advance)? driver side above the radiator, I finally got a sputter, then nothing. I was like WTF? Traced vac lines, found one on the back of the engine, driver si...

Hey there, this is my first post, as i have been lurking for quite a long time here. Anyway, i used to have a 96 850T5 that would do that exact thing, and also had a 99 S70T5 that would start fine until it got to operating temp, then would not start again until completely cooled off, but would star...

Could be an immobilizer issue - on the later models more common. Not sure how to verify. Talked to a local euro car repairer, he suggested maybe the chip in the key was expired, to try spare key. Did so, no change. Pulled key switch apart and cleaned contacts, got the alarm to go off after everythi...

In what manner did you confirm you have fuel pressure? How did you confirm your pump is working? Have you put a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail? Dumb question - how long has the fuel filter been in service? Could you have messed something up here? Can you flush out with more detail your testin...

Agreed. Is there a better way to check injectors than a test light? I have pressure at the rail, and good readings on cam and crank sensors per Chilton/Haynes and a couple of older posts on this site

I would think that if the mentioned sensors were bad it wouldn't fire with starter fluid.

Fuel filter is less than 1000 miles old. Pump is good.

I’ll check them when I get home tomorrow. The thing that is killing me is it ran before the axle replacement . One has nothing to do with the other. Lol

Sorry I dint post, injectors are not firing as far as I can tell
with a test light

I've been all over multiple sites investigating this so bear with me: Broke passenger side halfshaft a few weeks ago. Had it running in the parking lot where it happened. Towed it home. R&R half shaft and front axle brake job. Now I have a crank, no start situation. *Fuel pressure good *Good spa...
