2001 Volvo S40 with long crank time?

Postby JessG » Tue Nov 03, 2009 1:45 am

The car cranks for about five sec. before starting. It starts instantly after it was ran recently but once it has sat for some hours, the crank time goes back up to 5sec or so.What can I do to cut down the crank time?

Fuel pressure regulator. They go bad on those cars.

I second that, fuel pressure regulator.

I know someone with an S40 and his went bad. Also its stated under a common problem on repairpal.com.
