Stalling and loss of power 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be volvo850 on  Wed Aug 25 12:54 CST 2010 [RELATED]

Sorry, I dont mean to scare u. I am a backyard mechanic myself but Ive kept 8 Volvos running since 1998(5/ 240 1 740 and 3 /850). Its just that you have to apply force to detach
the rail with the injectors and it has to be strong but gentle or gradual not jerking it. There is a metal tip on the right end you can use to pull it. dont pull the rail cover cause it may come off... I have broken seals working on it and I have spares around if you dont the car is grounded. Also the bolts are going into all aluminum so torque gently. It is not your cast iron block.
Your local u pick can be your best friend for parts and practice.
Like I said just check or detach the vacuum hose without taking the rail if you are not changing the FPR. My car had this hose cut and it would randomly not start until I changed it. Heads up!
