My 1985 760 Turbo after all these years is still going strong. But there is one problem. From time to time when the engine gets hot after driving for about 30-60 minutes the car looses power. You press on gas pedal and the car chokes. This symptom is more common with higher outside temperature. When this happened I noticed bad exhaust smell and the exhaust pipe gets black. When I stop the car and wait some time to cool down the car is good again. It's always good when it is cold. The other thing I noticed is rough idle when it is warmed up. Any advice from you volvo fanatics, guys and girls will be greatly appreciated.
