Fuse holder # 6 in a 91' 240 is the fuel pump only, there are three wires on it. The "hot" side (or unprotected side) has got so hot it has blackened and melted the plastic (nylon?) plate. The contact moved apart so the fuse is loosly held. The result is intermittant stalling or failure to start. I squeeze the fuse holder contacts togther restart, and go on my way.
On the "hot" side is a heavy gauge (#10?) red wire coming from the power distribution block on the driver side fender. Also on that same side is a light gauge (#16?) red wire. This light gauge wire diffinetly looks like it has seen too much current. The insulation is sagging, you can see the strands of wire through the insulation.
On the "protected" side a light gauge red wire goes to the fuel main relay, this one is not melted. Where does the light gauge wire go. (the one thats on the same side as the feed and therefore "unprotected")
I have the Volvo shop manual from the dealer, it shows several dotted lines where some optional feeds go on the "protected" side but nothing other than the feed on the "hot" side.
I guess I could just unplug it and see what doesn't work.
Thanks, Steve M.
