Ok, so my wagon died on me on my way home from work the other day.
I got towed home because I didn't feel like getting squished on the side of a busy highway.

Did some troubleshooting and found my in tank pump to be bum. Would run off main (undercar) pump when the fuses were jumped.

Ok, made a $300 order to FCP and just got it all in.
Replaced in tank pump and Fuel pump relay.

Still no worky.
Found main FI fuse under hood on driver's fender wall was shorted out and burnt. Replaced that.
I can get the car to run both pumps by jumping fuses. Car will run and run great when fuses are jumpered. Just will not run without jumper wire.

So, I have a perfectly running volvo, just can't get it to run by itself, it will only run with the brand new FCP fuel pump relay bypassed.

Now, I did some research and found that the Pink Label ECU may be to blame. Yes, you guessed it, I have the Pink label 561.

So, whaddya think? get the ECU? everything else is now replaced.

some advice would be great.
