Unfortunately it wasn't the cause. Changed exhaust system and it's still the same. Any other ideas where to look? I'm running out of things to try now.

Given that the donor engine ran fine before and still does apart from idle is a mystery I don't have any more suggestions for.
Most of the usual suspects (ECU ,egr, throttle body, vacuum pipes, MAF etc etc ) don't apply as these were all complete with the donor engine.
Therefore, I can only think that an idling problem has to be either a fueling/air problem or a mis matched sensor. Possibly gas pedal, injector pump.
The major surgery you have done is a big job. Missing a small thing or getting a faulty electrical match on a modern car is highly likely.
I can only suggest biting the bullet and going for a Volvo specialist.
All the best, your hard work deserves a reward.

I think it may be a fuelling issue as it smells like it's getting too much fuel. I still can't get rid of fuel temp sensor code, it reads 453 degrees constant. I have changed fuel lines from tank, filter housing with new filter, fuel metering valve, maf sensor and running out of ideas on what to try next. I was very precise in making sure wiring was put back in as it came out of donor car. Although I had still on original v50 throttle pedal? That won't have anything to do with it will It?

Also I highly doubt Volvo will even look at the car as it has gone through such major work. But I will try and see as I need to see if they can code my radio.

I will get there eventually, don't want to give up now. Alot of time has gone into this!

I checked codes again today and I have an intermitant code 1563 engine shut off. Has anyone encountered this before? I also read up that a fuel temperature sensor can cause arractic engine revving or stalling. Anyone know voltages I should be getting at fuel temp sensor connector?
