Hi, I have a 1996 Volvo 960 and it just died on me the other day as I was turning a corner. It had done this a couple of times before but always started right back up. This time the car will not start. It turns over fine and is cranking good. The check engine has been on and I ran a OBD on it and it came up with O2 sensor and some other sensor in the exhaust lineup. What do I do now? I am lost and need to find the way. I have limited resources and would like to fix this myself if possible or at least know for sure what it is that needs to be done with it. Thanks ahead of time for any feedback.

Cutting out during turns is usually indicative of a problem with the in-tank fuel pump.

However, before committing to that what were the fault code numbers?

Whew indeed.

Usually an OBD reader gives a four digit number which can then be checked against a list of faults. The codes you have given don't mean anything to me.
