Dear Blindboy,

Hope you're well. I, too, noticed a drop in miles/gallon in a '93 940. I tracked it to a faulty injector, that was dribbling - rather than spraying - fuel. I changed the oil - which smelled of gasoline - and replaced all four injectors. That has helped matters.

If a speedo needle "bounces", that's a sign that the speedo is "on the way", most likely because capacitor leakage has damaged the circuit board.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
