Hi all...

Wierd... I was driving home and stopped on the way...when the wife went to start the car...of course she still put's her foot on the gas...it reved upto to around 2,000 - 2500 rpms and then stalled... She attempted to start again and it kicked over a little roughly..then stallled again...afterwards it would only crank over..and sounded like it was not geting any spark or fuel? In any case I ended up calling the towing service who brought us home before they were going to drop the car off to the local Volvo dealer for diagnosis...before he left....we decided to see if the car would start again...and voila..it did...!?!?! No CEL....nothing...? Weird.it's almost as if it got vapor-locked? Anyone experience this? Does holding the gas pedal all the way down to the floor-board have any effect on hte ETM...like a 'reset' or something?

PS...I've had the new software uploaded along with the ETM replacement... Sounds like I might have to swing into the dealer to have the software updated...

In advance, thanks to all who respond...!

Frank
