2000 Volvo s80, t6 (158k). yesterday it started to feel like it was staving for gas and might stall, but never did. If I keep the gas pedal steady with no burst of acceleration car skips along huffying and puffing. But if I ask it for more speed it has a tough time and the engine light comes on. any ideas.

2001 volvo s80 rough ideal below 40 mph especially when the ac is on. Also if i press the throttle while in park or in drive at low speed the ideal gets rough (pulsates and often stalls).

SOUND IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE NOT WORKING PROPERLY.IT SHOULD STEP UP IDLING WHEN YOU TURN ON THE AC TO KEEP ENGINE FROM STALLING OUT.

Hi my 2000 volvo s80 auto the engine stalls as soon as i try to slow down or get my feet of gas it stall can some one help please\r\nthank you

check the vacuum hose that runs from the brake booster to the intake manifold, if it is cracked or disconnected it can cause this to happen. check all other vacuum hoses and and the intake hose for air leaks. if no problem found replace the fuel filter, the engine may be getting starved if its clogged.

2000 VOLVO S80 HAS A LARGE VACUUM LEAK. HOW DO I

In the past we have used starting fluid to find vacuum leaks. Start the engine, let it idle. Spray quick shots of starting fluid at your vacuum lines in isolated areas. When the starting fluid find the vacuum leak the engine will react to it... usually by going up in rpm. Depending on your engine computer, it may stall the engine. Either way you will find your vacuum leak. Get starting fluid or "ether" at Autozone or O'Reilly.

Squishy brake feel with long pedal travel but brakes stop the car

You have to remove the air trapped in the hydraulic system. Look at change of brakefluid in a repair handbook and perform it as described.

Useful to change the brakefluid at least once every five years anyway.
