Instead of fiddling and buying parts, why not take it to a dealer and have them check it out? They never charge more than one hour's labor.

Your problem could just be a hole in a hose.

Last fall my dealer had a special - one hour's troubleshooting for free and a written report of problems found.

Every used Volvo that I purchased was run through their certification check - cost was one hour's labor and I got a two page report. They can tell you if an ant ever farted in the glove box! Volvo used to have a copy of the checklist on their site.

As for high test, the price of base fuel is so high that high test is a bargain - I find that the extra mileage that I get is worth the price.
