My 1992 Volvo 940 GL has a problem with stalling for no reason. Always restarts, but after a few minutes. Happens on different speeds and different times, highway, stopped, driving 35 MPH, etc.
My Volvo940 Gl stalls out and doesnt take off right away when im driving It also idles a little high at times.My Volvo940 Gl stalls out and doesnt take off right away when im driving It also idles a little high at times.
My Volvo 940 GL (1992) has been running great for the last week until last night. I just had the exhaust done (post catalytic converter back), and previously had a problem with stalls once at temp (replaced engine speed sensor) wire from engine block to wires near firewall). Today, it stalled every 1-2 miles - though I did manage to drive it to/from the local dollar sore with no issues. Stalled on left turns and going up hills. Oh, and before the sensor, I had the throttle body cleaned. This is driving me crazy. Thursday I drove 200 miles with no issues. Oh, front directional socket is blown, but new one is on order. Please, any suggestions welcome. I love this car!My Volvo 940 GL (1992) has been running great for the last week until last night.

heard it was contamination of oil in the distributor cap. There was oil around the cap. I Cleaned it out, thought i did a great job, however that was not the problem. Still stalling spuradically for no apparent reason. I love this car too!! Need to find the solution...heard it was contamination of oil in the distributor cap. There was oil around the cap.

My Volvo 940GL stalls randomly, turning a right hand corner, at a stop light, and trying to turn it over after turning it off while sitting in the same place for a long period of time. It eventually will restart, however, it takes a while, then it will turn over and start. I am concerned it may be a major problem.My Volvo 940GL stalls randomly, turning a right hand corner, at a stop light, and trying to turn it over after turning it off while sitting in the same place for a long period of time.

Cooling fan relays are usually located under the hood in the engine compartment in the black box with all of the fuses. On the under side of the box cover it will usually give a drawing of the fuses and relays and the position they hold in the box.
940 i think is the turbo model pull out the air filter you may not be getting enough air the turbo maybe bad. otherwise sorry it 5 am ive been up all night my brain is fried lol.
Each and every stereo in each and every car has a different code usually a four digit one.Try looking in the owners log book case for the key code it may be written down on a small piece of paper or it could be hidden away in the glove box or in the little sleeves on the sun visors which is common.If you dont manage to locate the code im afraid to say it will have to be recoded but depending on the age of the stereo and the price of recoding sometimes its cheaper just to renew your stereo, Hop this helps!!!!!!
i called a dealership in town and asked nicley,gave them the vin and they looked up the code and told me. online im not sure where to look it up, but if you call its a chep fix
Check for broken, damaged or stiff wires between the ECU to coil & ECU to hall effect in dissy.
If your not technical get Auto Electrician to wiggle the wiring looms while engine is running & maybe you will find it.
