volvo has a hard time starting

Post by tiasvolvo »

We have to floor the gas pedal to start it, but it still doesn't start sometimes. It seems like it's flooding, which I thought fuel injectors aren't suppose to flood? It will also die on us while driving, but when it is running, it runs pretty good. The spark plugs are wet too. We replaced the coil and bought a spray for the MAF, but can't get into the MAF. :(

Hi! Welcome to Matt's Volvo Site forum! Someone might be able to help you diagnose your problem, but it would help us if you introduced yourself and explained which vehicle you are driving.
