quote"This is similar to 628 but in a 98 S70 GLT. The engine will run for about 10 seconds and quit. It does not seem to run the fuel pump, however I can remove its fuse and reinsert it and it will pressurize the line so it will run again for another 10 seconds and quit. Any ideas?"
 
I have a 2000 volvo s70 and I have the same problem. I thought it could be a short in the fuel pump wiring(green and red). I am looking all over the internet for some to answer our problem. So far no luck. Please tell me if you have found the problem. Thanks.

I fixed my daughters s70 by replacing the coolant temprature sensor. It was giving the ecm a false reading. I hooked a scanner on the car and it was reading 300 degrees f. most of the time it would not start first time in the a.m. some times after sitting for a while. the part came from napa and cost around forty dollars.

98 S70 GLT ABS Brake Problem by tim15

I have the ABS and Trac COntrol lights on intermittingly on my S70. The car has 117K I also hear an occasional clicking noise from the brakes pedel, as if the ABS is activating, even though I am not braking. When this happens, the ABS and traction lites come on. I was going to order the new ABS module, but then thought it could be a wheel sensor. ANy similar problems or tips? DOn't want to buy a module unless absolutely needed. Thanks

Its 90% likely the module if you have never replaced it. However, before ordering a new very expensive unit, search this forum and you will find the contact info of someone who will repair it for much much less.

98 s70 key/ start problem by stangdog

OK, my problem is when i put the key in the ignition, the key will just spin around and not engage the ignition, or it will engage and not start, after a few prayers, a few jingles, it will eventually start, it might take a few seconds, a few minutes, or a few hours, it all depends, anyone have an idea what this might be caused by?
Thank you
 
Chris

Basically, you need a new ignition.

Chris.. Have you checked or replaced the antenna ring? It's the ring around the ignition - where the key is inserted. My probem was similar - started normally, but occasionally and with increased frequency it would not. Replaced the antenna ring - I believe dealer only - and it ran fine. However, 18 months later it's begin to do it again.
