If I sit with my engine ticking over for any length of time 5 to 10 minutes it splutters and dies. When I try to start it ,it refuses. I have to wait untill it is cold before it will start. I've sprayed all electrical components with wd40 but it still stalls.
it's been serviced ,new plugs etc.Can any body think what could be causing this behaviour. i'm new to volvo's,never expierienced this problem with other cars that i've owned. HELP!
