Well now hot start is fine after changing Crank Position Sensor. Safi the garagiste made a bit of a meal of it, though, at my expense!

Now the puzzles. Safi did an emission test, and it is good but it says it is for a non-cat car. How can that be? She is 1995/6, and must have and indeed does have a cat. Second how different are the cat and non-cat standards for that year? Third, I am SURE but have not yet checked that I have seen lambda values on tests of some of my volvos, but this test does not state a lambda valu.

Am I imagining things?
