For sale 1995 940 HPT

147,000 miles, I am the 2nd owner, pearlescent grey, one miniscule dent on the roof otherwise no other dents or rust whatsoever, cloth interior. Get me home light is on, I could not obtain a code reader for the 16 pin central cubby box socket. I have renewed with new mostly Volvo parts: Lambda, MAFS, sensor in the manifold nearest the bulkhead, coolant temp sensor, crankshaft sensor, bosch plugs (now completely black), plug leads, thermostat, fuel pressure regulator, ECU sent away and checked, turbo rebuilt, bosch injectors, radio suppression relay, throttle position sensor, and the intercooler cleaned internally. Charnwood Volvo suggests it's the inlet manifold. Space is needed. With all the work that has been carried out perhaps the car is worth £1,500 ???

Now you have changed all of those parts, pull fuse 1 in the fusebox for 30 seconds to erase the fault codes and see if the light comes back on.

I don't know what they mean by the inlet manifold at fualt as it is a cast aluminium manifold and doesn't do anything, did they mean the gasket could be leaking air in or the throttle body adjustment?

Manual or Auto? Do you have any pictures?

If the plugs are black I’d be surprised it’s got an air leak. Sounds as though there’s too much fuel rather than too much air..
