Correct. When trans is fully hot (about 15 min. driving, or since you can't drive, about 20 min. idle time) with engine running in park, fill until level with mark labeled "Hot".
You need to look at the temp sending unit it's probably faulty anthor issue with volvo is dirty throttle body's this raises havoc on the car they idle up down all over the map also you should change the thermostat too as a precautionary measure make sure it's the right temp for your year of your car thanx Chris
Check your coolant level and overflow bottle for proper fill. Or try running it With radiator cap loose to see if it still stalls. If it still stalls and coolant levels are good you need to check temp sensor. May be more than One. If you did install a new one, it may have been faulty or damaged. If all that fails then try an idle positioning sensor. The spring may be worn.
it can very greatly depending on the engine, miles, tempture.... but a good rual of thumb is any thing over 15 psi at hot idle is ok and any thing over 30 but under 70 at cruse is ok
After sitting that long replace thermostat and refill with new coolant.Also make sure waterpump is turning when car is running. A glazed belt or seized waterpump is a possibility.
Sounds like you have a plugged up catalytic converter. You cant clean them it will need replaced. If it is the 4cyl engine, the converter is the exhaust manifold on the front of the engine.
