This just started a few days ago... at the stoplight, step on the gas pedal when the light turns green, and the car - hesitates, or stutters for a few seconds, as if it's about to stall. Running smooth otherwise.

I heard through the sneaker network that a neighbor (has the same make and model) reportedly heard of a recall or tech bulletin on this, but Google came up empty. Any ideas?

Been a great second car, otherwise (once eww resolved the headlanp faults).

thanks for comments, thoughts, and especially suggestions!

 

Yeah ive got the same stupid thing goin on with my 98 s70 GLT non turbo
and a tech told me to checkout the fuel filter... i was hoping to this wknd
but i havent had a chance. hope this helps

 

After reading a lot on the internet today, I am hoping it's not the infamous Volvo ETM recall (that covered all Volvo S70s, except my 1998!). Google "VEXEDvolvo" read it and weep.

After twenty years, I am 100% positive that my 1988 240D will be "alive and kicking" long after my 1998 S70 been crushed and recycled.
