Okay Guys, Here's the new thread and here's the deal. I've been converting
an '82 245 D24 diesel to an '83 gas engine setup from a donor car. I've also
incorporated several parts/systems from an '84. So this car kind of reminds
me of an old Johnny Cash song. Anyway, to recap and bring everyone up to date,
I'll summarize our progress. We are at the point of tryimg to get the car to
start. Thanks to many of you here on the BB (Lucid, goatman, Sdewolf,etc.) we
have achieved spark afetr replacing everything in the ignition system with new
parts except for the Ignition Control Unit itself which is used. I even
installed those special Volvo sleeves on all of the individual pins of the ICU
connector to ensure good contact and everything is now working great in the
ignition department. Now onto the next dilemma-fuel, or more correctly- lack
of fuel. Lucid had left a reply to my previuos post about checking some of the
relays in the fuel system but I'm still confused about something. What do the
numbers in you're post correspond to? Are these referenced in the Bentley
manual somewhere? Someone please clarify this for me so I can take the next
step. I had left a previous reply regarding the possibility of replacing
both of the fuel pumps with new because the ones I have on there now are from
the '83 donor car and I have no idea what there age is. Also pretty much
everything on this car that is a normal Volvo wear-item has been replaced with
new or rebuilt parts. So, still no start. Where to begin now? With the fuel
system I'm sure. And as always, thanks in advance for all of your help,
Charles
