hello-
I have a 1992 volvo 240 wagon 5 speed manual. I have not been driving a lot since covid closures so she doesnt drive as much as usual, however I had the follow issue this evening. I did drive yesterday and did feel that at times she was losing power

She starts fine and will stay in an idle with no issue however when I press the accelerator- there is no power transferred to the engine (even when peddle is depressed all the way to the floor) and the engine stalls out.
I can put the car in gear and take my foot off of the clutch and the car will remain in idle as well, it isnt until I try to depress the gas pedal that she stalls
No warning lights on dash to signify an issue
I have checked and replaced the fuses for both fuel pumps (although main pump fuse has a history of overheating and melting)
I hear the fuel pump turn on
Throttle linkage appears intact and moves appropriately when maneuvered.
o2 sensor appears normal

Any help is appreciated
