Another Idle Problem 200 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be Theodore on  Thu May 31 01:37 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Ok Volvo Lovers,

Here are the problems, the temperature hand usually sits at 9 o'clock. At start up it will go up to 9 when sitting still as I move along it drops to 8 o'clock. I have replaced the temperature sensor and the thermostat. Still have the problem. Now the idle goes up to 1200 rpms and I can't get it to come down except if I use the AC. Last night it started to idle at 700 to 800 rpms but it started to shake very badly. This morning as I drove to work it went back to 1200. I have replaced the idle control motor with a new on from Volvo. I cleaned the throttle body and put on a new gasket. I, also, put on a new manifold gasket, replaced two fuel injectors. Can someone tell me what is going on with this car?

Thank you,

Theodore
