My 83/242 has had the same electrical problem that most 83 Volvos get.I made up my mind that Saturday was my day for myself.I drop in at the old stand by yard that I like to go to.I did a good bit of walking around,(who needs that walk around the block when you can get exercise at the PNP yard)Anyway there sat a fresh 83 wagon just pulled in a total rust bucket.I opened the hood and there it sat infront of me a fresh wring harness AMM and a new volvo idle aie control valve.I couldn't stand it out came the tools and two hours later I had the whole thing I even got the White cap hall sender which was new also.OK the Question you are asking is what's the total cost.$47.50,and I went home a happy camper.The guy charged me $6.50 for the harness the AMM and the control valve got the rest of the money.I just can't figure out how to pat myself on the back because my arm isn't that long(that was the joke in the post)
Thanks
