Re: How to do a tuneup on a 960??? 900 1992

Don't replace the coils just yet, they rarely go bad...you'll probably just end up throwing that $200 away. Check some of the more likely culprits first. The flame trap is what Volvo uses instead of a PCV valve. It's located on the big, black intake pipe between the throttle body and air cleaner. There's a pipe that connects to the intake with a plastic elbow. Twist the elbow counter-clockwise and inside is a plastic device that looks like a strainer. Clean it up well and re-insert it.
