This was the first thread, with lots of suggestions which eventually lead me to the answer:

This was the second thread, once I had found what the engine fault code was! http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?p=1739452

Hope this helps - but the first thing to do is to get hold of a fault-code reader.

As far as I know the fuel pump relay is in the car on the fusebox. The injection relay or radio suppression relay as it's officially known is in the engine compartment, normally just above the battery whichever side it's on.

Why Volvo didn't fit all the relays inside the car I don't know it would make life a lot more simple.
Just for clarification, the fuel pump relay is inside the car, the RSR (Radio Suppression Relay) is under the bonnet in one of a variety of locations. Also worth noting that on 96-on models, not only does the RSR supply the injectors and Lambda heater but also feeds the ignition coil and amplifier module.
With that in mind, on a post 96 car, the rev counter could drop to zero as the ignition wouldn't be firing either.
