Hi,
1991 240 wagon, new problems surfaced today. The car drove in the am, my daughter took it on errands, car would not start after a short drive/park. I got her calm, and went through some troubleshooting via phone. Had her pull fuse 4 (fuel feed pump), found to be OK, then fuse 6 (main fuel pump), which was blown. Had her replace with fuse from glove box (she put in a 15a by mistake), but car started and she was happy. She drove a while longer, maybe 1/2 hour, and all dash light came on and car stalled, would not start. She replaced fuse again (got a correct 16a this time) and was OK. Car is now home.
My question is this; what might be causing the fuse(s) to blow? Hope to get it back to a reliable state in a short time, and as always low $$$.
Thanks,
Bob
