My 1995 940 Volvo just lost power while driving and stopped. After trying to restart the car it seemed like it just wasn't getting gas.

My 1992 940 Turbo has had stall problems. On the two last occasions I replaced hoses, which solved my problem.

SOURCE: 1995 Volvo 940 flywheel

1995 940 has a crank position sensor mounted at the top rear of the engine which reads cranks position off the flywheel. Though not adjustable, it is a part which fails often causing weird and intermittent no start/hard start problems as well as other faults. While the part is not too expensive, you do have to crawl on top of the engine to see it, and its a pain to replace. Guess you could remove the hood, but I have changed mine without doing so. Get light on the area,and you can do it. If you are having timing too far advanced issues (running on when killing engine or "pinging" on acceleration several other parts may be suspect. Knock sensor, spark plug issues, carbon buildup, O2 sensor, lean condition and more. Good luck.

SOURCE: lambda-sond light stays on, on my Kreg volvo 940.

well you have to change it and your car is not very envirmently friendly with the lambda sensor you will use extra fuel, it will run shity........ get an mouth spaner and loosen it and unplug it and twist it out..
