No start when hot 700 1987

Just wanted to report back to everyone. It turns out the problem was the Radio Suppression Relay after all. Even though the relay looked fine and had no cracked solder joints. When the car was hot, for some reason the coil did not engage the relay, even though it was getting 12 volts to the coil. If you lifted the contact with the key on the coil would remain closed and the car would start fine. This was a KAE relay that had been replaced sometime in the past. I put in a Volvo relay and it has been working fine since. Thanks to everyone for all the advise and help.

Regards,
Mark
