My 240 just cranks, but won't start, intermittent

posted by  someone claiming to be Goober on  Tue Mar 29 15:23 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Today for the first time in a long time my 240 wagon wouldn't start. But then it started and seemed fine. Then, I got it home, went out to see if it would start, and it would crank like crazy, but wouldn't start. I checked all the obvious stuff with volvo 240's like fuses, bad fuse connection, fuse on the drivers fender, connections, all checked out good. Wiggled all the connections, and it started, but I think it may have developed an intermittent problem, just today.

I changed out the fuel inj. relay a few years ago, but the problem then was stalling after running, not starting. If this car quits on me tomorrow, I will never hear the end of it if you know what I mean. The wives get spoiled with these cars being so reliable, and when they do screw up they don't understand, HAHA. Any ideas?
