1998 volvo v70 stalling, 5 codes

[jblackburn]

another question....If the cam sensor is bad then the car wont start at all right?

Depends how it failed. It may fail only when hot...in which case, the car would start and then die out when it loses a reading from the sensor.

It doesn't stall out when hot, Just when i drive down the road and come to my first stop. However I just disconnected the mass airflow sensor and the car did not stall out. It ran a little rough but didn't stall. So im going to go ahead and replace the MAF sensor. Im just not sure where im getting the cam code from so I inspected the connection and cleaned it out....

Well, that's something.

Make sure that the cam position and crank position wires (2 big fat insulated ones coming from the sensors) are as far away from each other as possible - zip-tie them if you can. They'll cause interference with each other and codes and/or bad running if they get too close to each other.

It's more a problem that the large coil lead causes interference due to it's high voltage and resultant high EMF so all wires should be away from the coil lead. The factory placed a plastic clip on the torque mount to hold the crank sensor lead but most of them have fallen off

Ok i replaced the MAF and It works good now....dosent stall anymore. The wire between the cam and crank were touching so i separated them with the zip ties. I also cleaned the Throttle body, plugs and wires and found that the evap codes were in fact coming from a separated line as abscate suggested. Cleared the code and hoping nothing comes back. Thanks everyone for the help!!
