1990 240 lacks power on accelleration 200

Hi Dave,

Everything is going slow, Phil was under the weather, then rained out.
I have already suggested that he get a *NEW* main relay and
to make a gauge out of a 1/4" spade lug and a hunk of solid CU from Romex
to test his main relay socket for loose pins. Explained how to remove to
tweak or replace, and suggested that the main relay socket gets a little dab of Penetrox-A on each female pin.

Everyone should read these two items by Ron Qwas and Dave Barton:
TLC for geriatric connectors, relay & lamp sockets.
