Yes, check the OBD codes, after you get it running again.

It would help to know the cause. I guess it did run.

How many years sitting? I have that problem 2000 miles distant.

You may get lucky with a tank drain and cracking a low pressure return line to drain the injection system of what is no longer 'gas'. You will then circulate new gas and maybe a few injector cleaner shots like Amoco / Standard techroline / techron or better.

The Motronic injection / EZK ignition is more or less the same as any injection version with the crank position or engine RPM sensor atop the bell housing. You have the fuse and relay board behind the ashtray at the center counsel depth or maybe under the right side driver foot well under the left knee kick panel. I'm unsure.

There exist articles on returning a rear wheel drive Volvo to life after sitting here, on Turbobricks, and other forums.

Also, watch that timing belt. B6304 is an interference engine.
