Diagnostic Test Code (DTC) P0302 has a generic description of "Cylinder Misfire - Cylinder Number 2".
A misfire simply means that when it came time for that cylinder to fire, it missed its chance.
There are many things that can cause a misfire. Some of the things are listed below. Diagnostics should be performed to eliminate the possible causes so you don't spend a lot of money replacing parts trying to "guess" what is causing it.
These are just SOME of the possible causes:
> Spark plugs
> Ignition cables
> Ignition coil
> Distributor cap (if equipped)
> Fuel injector
> Fuel injector circuits
> Burned engine valves
> Blown head gasket
> Cracked cylinder head
> Piston damage
> Cylinder block damage
> Broken valve springs
> Damaged camshaft
> Vacuum leaks
Cylinder 2 misfire.
Good day,
The error code P0302 in the 1996 volvo 850 indicates that cylinder no.2 is misfiring,which implies that you have to check the plugs and the wires that lead to the distributor,the fault is from one of these components.
After tracing the faults,if you need further assistance,please don't hesitate to call back.
Thanks for using fixya

go to your local volvo dealership, and you must have the car in your name, but ask one of the mechanics if you can have the code for your radio, they'll look it up and give it to you I believe.
