1990 Volvo 740 GLE 16 Valve 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be anonymously on  Tue Feb 25 15:01 CST 2014 [RELATED]

Is it normal for the 1990 740 GLE Volvo Wagon 16 valve to sort of whine while excelerating. The engine idles well. It has a new timing belt and all new belts. It has a new alternator. I change the oil regularly. It sounds like a high pitched sound only when I give it gas. Someone told me it was a normal sound of a Volvo. There are no leaks. The gas mileage is about 150 per tank is this good or bad? And does the gas mileage have anything to do with it? I changed the fuel relay recently since it was stalling, and it has not stalled once since replacing this a month ago.
