The Trilogy continues- the no-spark dilemma has morphed onto the no-fuel dilemma for my diesel to gas conversion project 200

Okay Guys, Here's the new thread and here's the deal. I've been converting

an '82 245 D24 diesel to an '83 gas engine setup from a donor car. I've also

incorporated several parts/systems from an '84. So this car kind of reminds

me of an old Johnny Cash song. Anyway, to recap and bring everyone up to date,

I'll summarize our progress. We are at the point of tryimg to get the car to

start. Thanks to many of you here on the BB (Lucid, goatman, Sdewolf,etc.) we

have achieved spark afetr replacing everything in the ignition system with new

parts except for the Ignition Control Unit itself which is used. I even

installed those special Volvo sleeves on all of the individual pins of the ICU

connector to ensure good contact and everything is now working great in the

ignition department. Now onto the next dilemma-fuel, or more correctly- lack

of fuel. Lucid had left a reply to my previuos post about checking some of the

relays in the fuel system but I'm still confused about something. What do the

numbers in you're post correspond to? Are these referenced in the Bentley

manual somewhere? Someone please clarify this for me so I can take the next

step. I had left a previous reply regarding the possibility of replacing

both of the fuel pumps with new because the ones I have on there now are from

the '83 donor car and I have no idea what there age is. Also pretty much

everything on this car that is a normal Volvo wear-item has been replaced with

new or rebuilt parts. So, still no start. Where to begin now? With the fuel

system I'm sure. And as always, thanks in advance for all of your help,

Charles
