any prv gurus out there? oxygen sensor idle issue 200 1980

posted by  someone claiming to be volvonewbie on  Tue Sep 29 08:18 CST 2009 [RELATED]

hello:

i just picked up a bertone (with the PRV) a week ago. This car runs great as far as i can tell. made the 100 mile trip home from seller with no problem. a closer scrutiny of the engine compartment revaled that the PO had disconnected the O2 sensor. With the engine running and warm, I re-connected it and the idle became somewhat rough. the engine didn't stall, though. I tried this with engine cold, engine idled OK, but after a couple of minutes, it's back to that somewhat rough idle. what could the likely problem be? thanks guys.
