Volvo 740 1988 Reviews
Having fuel delivery issues, car will not maintain idle and pedal does not work. I have replaced both fuel pumps, coil, wires, cap and rotor, plugs, throttle position sensor. Just ordered mass air flow sensor. Whats next fuel injectors? can the hydraulic clutch on a 2007 vn610 be adjusted? My vovlo s70 1998 lost power going 40mph and then will start right back up. I just bought a 2001 Volvo C70 convertible 113,000 miles - no warranty - it started bucking a bit - I took it for an oil change and they wouldn't do it because the dipstick top came right off and the dipstick is stuck inside so he said he couldn't a/c compressor runs for about 30n seconds after start up then shuts down . 2002 volvo vhd Is it good to buy the Volvo CX60? The passenger seat belt is stuck and will not extend. I have an 2004 xc70. What is the fix? I have fooled with it but no luck. how to install crankshaft gear We keep getting "tire pressure system service required" warnings on our 2007 volvo V70 2.5t. There was a recall on this is for the 2007-2010 v80. start of fuel deliver at the Bosch injetion pump hi want is the correct price for s40 2000 steering rack and pinion and do need the boot and filter
