help 911 700

posted by  someone claiming to be KELLY JO on  Fri Jun 11 02:47 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Stranded in Mayberry RFD and need to get this volvo running right. I bought a 760 turbo 1987 and this is what it does: I drive off speed is ok then as I get down the road the speed reduces to 15 MPH. Sometimes it dies sometimes the turbo kicks back in.

We replaced the fuel filter and spark plugs. We also replaced the resistor. put new gasket on for it was leaking oil everywhere. Put in high octane gas and a can of cleaner in the tank. New oil new air filter. Adjusted the idol as well. Went through all the hoses. No leaks.

There is no volvo place to have it tested. The car idols fine but has problems when I reached 30 mph. Speed is gone gone gone.

Please someone help I am stranded with kids

Thanks
Kelly Jo
