Thanks for the suggestions,guys.
Here's more info on the no-start. New Crank position sensor, new timing belt and the camshaft turns upon cranking as seen by looking into the oil filler hole in the valvecover. Have tried 2 (albeit used) power stages.
The automotive instructor at our local college (my buddy) suggested a dead coil.
I have just ordered a Bosch unit from FCPGroton. Tomorrow, another volvo nut offered to let me try the coil off his 91 245 to see if my 245 will start.

BTW, how long do coils last? This one would have 200K miles on it.

Thanks for the imput.
