    The 240/740/760 Volvo's are all RWD, this car is most likley an I6 if it is not a Turbo.

    It's a 6-cyl. The 960 is the car that became the S90.

    I'll bet its an easy fix too, probably something like a fuel pump or bad injector.

    In reply to HappyAndy:

    Katrina was 4 1/2 years ago. The effort to clean up a flood car is tremendous, and you would have to be certifiably insane to do it for a 10+ year old car worth under $1k. Is is possible it is a flood car? Yeah, probably about the same as cars in Atlanta, Houston and many other places too. Besides it is a $500 car.
