Bad ground on fuel pump? 140-160 1974

Is this a common problem? I got intermittant cutout on hard braking. Wiring connector is in securely, but the pump body had to be grounded to frame to run.

Oh, and you know you're a Volvo nut when:
As a child when you got a new HotWheels or Matchbox, you opened the box, removed the toy car . . . and played with the box.

You painted my volvo aqua because there's somethinng about an aqua volvo man.

You are in your 40's and five of the nine cars you've owned were Volvo's.

Your Volvo was built before you could drive.

You read the Haynes-book for amusement, while eating your breakfast.

You have looked through every matchbox and hotwheels car in the toy store hoping to find a Volvo.

You interpret the "No U Turn" highway symbol (diagonal slash) to mean only a Volvo can turn here.

You've ever used the head rests as a towel rack (applies to most '80 models)

You ever traded in a car for an older model Volvo because you needed more reliable transportation.

You vary the octane gas you purchase based on temperature and altitude.

You know the Latin translation of Volvo (I roll) and the origin of the Volvo symbol of a circle with an arrow (symbol for iron) even though you didn't go to Catholic School and that they combine to mean "rolling strength."

You have Volvo stickers on your bicycle.
