I recently purchased an 1988 760 gle. I have never owned a 6 cyl Volvo before only 4 cyl's ....Everytime the car is started it runs and idles fine for about 2-3 minutes then abruptly stops as if some one has turned the key off ,it is a clean shut down. I have tried to locate a scan tool but it seems they dont make one for this year and model ..some books have said it has a self diagnostic unit on the drivers side strut tower but I cannot locate anything like this. the coil and battery are fine. I feel it is an electrical problem. possibly something with the fuel system ......if you have any input or have dealt with this model your input will be much appriciated .... Thanks Jack ....outside Chicago
