Went to 2 volvo pro's and they found nothing. Keeps setting 214 code and intermittent stall no rhyme or reason. Replaced main relay, factory crps sensor, they tried a different computer, and cam sensor. What next?

thanks for the help.

 

There was a TSB a few years ago that dealt with that. It calls for using a ty-wrap to secure the lead from the crankshaft position sensor well away from the ignition wires. In its natural state it wants to loop up near the distributor cap where its signal can be interfered with.

It is my kinda repair, real cheap and real easy.

Well what about when it will ONLY stall in the summer. My 96 850T will only stall when it gets warm out. went to auto zone to get the codes, and the only one was a 440. i have tryed to find it but no luck. thx for your help

 

I cannot find code P440 in my factory manual.

Hot climate puts strain on the engine, especially if it's a turbocharged one. Stalling could be due to many things and could be due to either one fault or multiple faults. I would check the cooling system, fuel system, induction system & ignition system. Some cars are more vulnerable to vapour lock in the fuel line.

See attached FYR.

What are the symptoms leading up to the stall? When our Volvo was stalling out, it would cruise, then stutter and buck just before it died, most of the time. It ended up being vacuum line related, so you might have your mechanic go over all your vacuum lines and check for cracks, leaks or breaks.
