Keith,
I have the same car, same problem. I have a recent thread on it. Change the fuel system relay. It's easy to get to and doesn't cost much. You can change it in 5 minutes. It is on top of the fan shroud near the fan relay. Spray the contacts in the plug with wd-40 then use a little grease in there for longevity of the contacts. Do this and I'll bet it fixes the problem. Think about how hot this stupid thing gets. It's right above the radiator! Not a wise location decision on Volvo's part but hey, their dealers love it. They pick up $200 bucks for 5 minutes work every three years or so. If the problem persists, then change the other relay. Much more difficult than the one depicted here. But I'll bet you don't have to mess with it.
