2000 S70 AWD fails to start

Post by ahmedshaheen »

Hello all,

I just bought a 2000 AWD S7o with only 78Kmiles on it.when i bought i it seemed to be very nice ride, but later i found out that the original owner was not not taking care of the car.
anyways , i have this problem now,
the car dose not start , as i turn it on it crancks but it dose not start as if it is out of gas,so i consulted with a volvo specialist, he was very honest with me and told me that everytis seems to be working, like fuel pump and such.
he was able to start the car only after putting gas in the fuel injectors line, by doing this the car starts and stays on for long time but as i press on the gas paddle, it starts to die or chock.
he told me it might be the butterfly gas gate,the turbo, or dirt in the gas llines, i changed the fuel filter, added gas line cleaner , but still no help!
dose anyone know what the problem migh be with? :(

thanx
