Part suplier should have included instructions.

It should be on the end of the exhaust cam on the Driver's side.

Drive the car until the fuel warning light illuminates. Put the rear axles on jack stands or the rear wheels on ramps. Chock the front wheels on both sides. Disconnect the negative battery wire and tie it away from the battery to prevent accidental contact. Lower the tank and remove the fuel line(s) as needed. See a youtube video for assistance if the bolts and straps are not obvious. Remove the tank to a safe work place. Remove the screws and replace the pump. Be sure you include a new filter and gasket as part of this operation. Allow 2 to 4 hours depending on whether you have help and whether you have extensive experience with other car maintenance.

petrol IS gas.

In the 2000, when the doors are unlocked with the remote, the fuel door is also unlocked. If not, check the fuse under the dash behind glove box

replace bank 1 sensor 1- O2 sensor

front O2 sensor

Unplug the MAF sensor and see if it runs better. If so, replace mass air flow sensor. Your problem is in fuel flow.

The adjustment is on the emergency brake lever in the console.

You could be more specific with the issue:

• Transmission type (Manual/Automatic)?
• How did this issue appear?
• Does the car change gears normally?

Your car seems to be an automatic transmission model? So the fault code is "Gear 3 Incorrect Ratio" This means that you may have:

• Low transmission fluid level or dirty transmission fluid
• Faulty or dirty shift solenoids
• Transmission mechanical problems
• Transmission hydraulic control circuit issue

have a power supply connected to the acc, in the vehicle,

You will need to get the code pulled it will tell you exactly whats wrong.

any major brand of 10W-30W

I'm too familiar with the T6 engine, but I *think* the T6 engine has the CVVT solenoid right by the exhaust cam and they are known to get weird and you need to clean it. I believe Volvo has a gasket with a screen in it to keep it clean. The cam sensors are pretty sturdy and rarely fail, so I'd check that last. Did this happen right after a timing belt change? If so, I'd double and triple check that you got everything lined up exactly right. My process is usually to use white-out to mark the old belt and gears and then transfer the marks to the new belt and if all marks still line up when it's back together I am good (and yes, it's been good this far hehe). If it's the CVVT sensor, buy a new gasket, remove the sensor, soak it in carb cleaner and give it a "work-out" with 12 volts if you have a battery charger or whatnot. It's possibly a fresh 9v battery might work too. If you got any other codes, even if you don't think they're related, they might be. I wouldn't touch any other systems if the car would run before and now won't, and all you touched is the cam timing and that's the code you got. Fix that first, THEN if you have other issues, you can tackle them.

Sounds like you need a new Rack and Pinion. Debris from the old pump may have plugged and ruined the rack.

No-

When u rev the engine can u hear or feel the trans turning if not its ur torque converter an on the 3 forms i looked on these cars have a prob with the motor producing to much toraue fo the tranny or the torque converter going out offten i can post links if u would like

In most cars its under the passengers side dash black an round looking unbolt an unplug 2 connectors an then it should come out with ease

I would start by re setting the computer. Just get a 10mm socket (most are 10 mm) loosen the negative battery cable nut and remove the connection from the battery post completely and let it sit for at least 10 minutes then replace the cable and tighten it securely. see what happens. you should be all clear to go.

Have your Relays and Fuses checked please.
