85 Volvo 740 GLE (non-turbo) - Tough Starting With Tank Not Full 700 1985

To All,

I have a 1985 Volvo 740 GLE (non-turbo) 4-Door sedan that is having a
difficult time starting when the gas tank is not full. When it is
full, it will start on the 1st turn of the key. When not full, it
usually starts after the 3rd or 4th attempt. We have also noticed a
steep decline in gas mileage.

Any ideas or links to FAQs would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,

MR
Fargo, ND
