Well lets see how my opinion plays out.
If you love your Volvo then only you can decide.I love Volvo's But my Heart belongs to the Mustangs.The 05's are SOOOOOOOOOO SWEEEEEEEET.
I wish I could afford one.

Im so broke My baby is broke and I can't afford to fix it yet.

Let me know what you Decide.

If you can swing it keep the Crunk and work on it slowly!!!

Well my volvo i will always keep as a keepsake and maybe as a little project car. cause all it really needs right now is a new 02 sensor and a Fuel Injection Temperature Sensor (Single Wire) and a good oil change because i took off the oil cap and i smelled gas everywhere. checked the oil dipstick and its above that line and it seems as if my cars engine is flooded with fuel. which i do tihnk it just needs its oil changed. so im thinkin right around 250 range. which i really dont think its that bad. or theres a 03 mustang v6 auto and they want 12K for it and has 20K miles on it. not bad what do u think? or should i spend that 6K more to get a 05 mustang. thanks tech

I would go for the 05 :banana: :460:


On the 240 if the crank case was full with fuel also check the fuel pressure regulator.Pull the hose off and see if there is gas in the hose.

I have always known them as the mass flow sensor.Unless it is being called something different.


Yes no gas there is good but it is coming from somewhere.

It should be screwed into the head.They must be talking about the coolant temp sensor.
