98 Volvo V70 never starts on the first try on a cold start

May 12, 2009 2 Replies

I have a 98 Volvo V70 Wagon and on a cold start (i.e. - overnight), the car never starts on the first attempt. On the second attempt it starts and runs at slightly lower rpms than normal. After the car warms up it runs at the usual rpms.



I changed, spark plugs, cap, rotor and air filter and no change in problem discussed above.



Any ideas?


Turbo /Non Turbo All Wheel Drive or Front Wheel Drive It sounds like the fuel pressure regulator or the fuel filter is causing your problem but without more Information it is rather hard to correctly help you correct your concern about your Volvo Glenn K Volvo Certified Technician 2008 ASE Certified Technician 2008

Its a front wheel drive, non-turbo 2,4L
