hi folks Jim adams here. I posted about my volvo 245 regarding a hard/no start problem. several of you have responded so thank you. I still have the problem so I thought i would lay out what i have done and results. this will be somewhat wordy. bye the bye, my previous post was under hotbike650. I must have written down my login info wrong and cannot remember what it is. I am logged in now through the one click login in the email they sent me. Ok,to the problem.
car was getting hard to start and was leaking/blowing oil. Looked like the worst was cam anb crank so I decided to replace them, clean it all up and go from there. I did that, put it all back togeher, hit the key, fired right up. came out the next morning, no start. since this was a cold start problem I replaced the fuel injection temp sensor. Put it all back together, hit the key, fired right up. Wife went to the store, stopped to pick up some fast food, all going good.Accidentally hit a huge puddle coming home water splashed up probably under the hood. car died but started right back up Came out this morning, no start. What i have done/checked.
rep ect sensor. checked for spark ,ok, fuel pressure ok, another fuel pump relay,checked voltage at AMM, voltage between 10 and i2 is ok.loked at amm off the car and could see the platinum wire inside, looked ok.When the car was running the other day, until it was warmed up it had a stumble/hesitation on take off. Will a bad amm cause a no start problem? I have one ordered.Also the last time it was running after starting the idle surged up and down until warming up. Qh and checked compression, also good, at 120psi so there is ml tale of woe.Appreciate all your advice. Also, would there be any one on this forum who lives in the beaverton/hillsboro oregon area who could maybe put some eyes on this I also need some help with pcv hose routeing. Thanks Jim.
