Exclamation Re: Need help here...

I heard this was a symptom of the Vehicle Speed Sensor (also called a RPM sensor or a Crank position sensor). Car starts ok, but doesn't want to start when it's warm. The VSS is located on top of the transmission, and is one of the few parts that dies in an old Volvo. Detailed info can be found here:
