Mk1 F VVC (you can see why I've bought something bigger and floatier to go alongside..) - I thought only the posher/ k V6 engines had the sensor, certainly that's what the internet generally claims? I'm tempted to plug the diag box in later now out of curiosity :-)

If you've just moved to injection from carbs, there will be a lot of things to learn, especially on a Volvo!
First thing I learned when I got an F was "Be thankful for enthusiasts who reverse engineer the code reader kit, because a good ear, points file, and something to free off the mixture nut on an SU isn't going to cut it"

Which reminds me, is there anything similar for this era of Volvo?
