A friend of mine is having issues with his 1987 Volvo 740 Turbo, it was running fine when it just suddenly died on the road. It always sounds like it is going to fire right up, but doesn't. The injectors seem to be getting fuel, so I wonder if these cars have some sort of CPS(crank position sensor) like the E30s? If so where? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Any Volvo Guys Here?

let me talk with the volvo guy here and post back
So I spoke with him that is year is about the time that they switched to a crankshaft position sensor. In which case usually when they cool they should start back up briefly. If not ohm out the sensor and see what you get a lot of the times you will get a sensor that will lose continuity or have stupid high resistance. I don't have a spec but if you are getting a measurement with a k in it thats likely too high. Second check the Fuel pump relay as those are a common fault as well.sigpicComment
