    I'd probably look at injectors.

    It may be bad injector or /and injector cups.

    This very well may be the simplest, popular, yet most expensive diagnosis in the history of truck repair. If you have witnessed the symptoms in person enough times, you don't even have to open the hood to diagnose. Good thing because o/o will need every penny saved to complete the repair.................until next year when it happens again and so on and so on.....................

    2012 with only 293K?

    I loved my Volvo like that. But I sifted through many to find one that had already had the injector cups done.

    I had an ISX, it was a boat anchor. Instead of injectors it was cam problems. They all have their own issues.
