If I said it happens when the cars cold then that was a mistake. So far it has only happened when the car was hot. Thanks! Last edited by zchael6; Mar 27th, 2020 at 14:18. |

If it's purely heat related then definitely worth checking the ignition amp module and cleaning, if needs be order some heatsink compound from ebay : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Servisol-...D/361946013712 Not the cheapest but Servisol have been around a long time so they don't make carp! Keep the lid on when not in use (it can make a hell of a mess!) and massage the tube a bit before each use to make sure it's well mixed.

It’s starting fine now on the drive but it’s cold. I fear if I went out in it again after a short while it would start and then not stop till it cools down Will |

I can't remember exactly which fuse it is but i know at least one of those is associated with the fuel pump, in a 740 i had, one of the fuel pump fuses had been repalced with a separate fuseholder because it had got hot and caused the same cutting out problem, likewise with a previous 740 where i had to fit a replacement fuse holder.

Hi Dave Thanks for the tips. I’ve been in and checked the fuses and they don’t have corrosion and the box doesn’t show any sign of heating up. I’ve been on a big trawling session through old threads reporting similar problems to which you and others have contributed lots of great advice some The same as in this thread. In one thread a member had similar Hot cut out issues and it was fixed by changing the fuel filter. I’ve looked under my car and the fuel filter looks very old so I’ll change that just to see if that helps. This is the thread https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showt...problem&page=8 Last edited by zchael6; Mar 27th, 2020 at 18:09. |

at 154k your in tank pump might be dodgy as well. On a 98 car you only have the one pump in the tank. It's given away but a buzzing noise from the rear cargo area. Mine sounded like a Chinook helicopter

The car sounds throaty but I put it down to the exhaust. I’ll have a listen tomorrow! Thanks!

https://www.rockauto.com/en/parts/au...fuel+pump,6256 That's an internal high pressure pump complete with strainer, there'll be Shipping & Handling on top and i'm not sure if they're sending stuff out at the moment because of CV-19. Also because the Invoice Value of the part is over £15, expect to pay Import Duty of 20% plus £8 fee to Royal Mail for delivering a card telling you the exact amount. At 20%, the Import VAT is going to be about £4 - add on the £8 from the RM and it's nearer £12 just so you're aware.
