slight victory...hot restart problem solved.......... 200

Hi!..........after having several episodes of no hot restart this past week, the '93 died in CT .....had to be in boston the next a.m., so.....called eeuroparts and ordered an ignition module (power stage) thing on fender next to the battery.and a new cps.......this is after checking several parts stores and a volvo dealer ($175 for the power stage and it'll take four days ....not enough room here to express myself on this issue)....eeuroparts was helpful in that i couldn't get there 'til about 6p.m...and although they closed at 5 there would be someone there working late and they had the parts waiting for me..cost about $100 for both........bit of a shotgun approach but had to be on the road....trip to boston was ok........with a few stops.....driving around boston...dodging falling ceiling slabs in the tunnel.....more stops.....trip back to vt.....more stops........no problems........i'm figgurin' that with 225k on it replacing both wasn't too much of a logical stretch........and when i pulled in out of friends garage where it had been for three days before the final no start problem........there wasn't a drop of any fluid on the floor...but then that may mean i'm low on oil....(kidding)........thanx...j.
