I have been posting problems here for seven months now (See my previous posts) trying to solve a problem with my car. I have replaced EVERYTHING that could have been the problem. Including all new wiring (TWICE)!!!Last night (3 O'clock this morning) I was tinkering with my new DVOM trying to make sense out of the ECT readings.

That's when I discovered that the ECT traced to the EZK Module and the Knock Sensor traced to the LH Jetronic. THIS IS BACKWARDS!!!I went to the engine, swapped the IDENTICAL connectors and SHAZAM!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A NEW VOLVO !!!!!!!!!!!

Now it's time for Nivomats or an AW-70!!!!!

Thanks to everyone who helped me in this endeavor. I was getting tired of everyone asking me if my TB was clean. I can see myself in the throttle plate for Pete's sake, LOL.
