Hi,

In the last episode, I replace the cylinder head. But the new head was also bad, so I bought another engine and swapped it out. I must have not connected something correctly because the car starts sometimes and runs well. Most times it almost starts. Today it ran well, then completely stalled.

I bought a OBDII scanner from Harbor Freight and it does not read the codes for Volvo some reason.

I would like to know what OBD scanner works on this car from someone who actually owns the scanner and a 1995-1997 960 with the OBDII connector on the center console and not in the engine compartment.

Thanks

PS, no water in oil, compression good, fuel pressure good. Maybe problem with immobilizer or ECU not allowing engine to start??? Desperately need a scanner to find out whats going on.
