Re: New to Volvos & chatrooms and engine sometimes hesitates 700 89GLE

Welcome to the board and congrats on the buy of that "classy wagon".

A simple and inexpensive thing that you could do yourself: 1) clean and tighten the electrical connectors to all the sensors ie, AMM, O2, RPM, etc.

2) clean and tighten all ground connectors, specially the ones at the intake manifold. an last get yourself a used 740 Haynes manual on eBay to point you in the right direction.

This might solve your problem, if it doesn't anyway is good preventive maintenance.

Enjoy your brick.
