Re: dead in the water. wiring, timing belt? 200 85

this sounds like a corroded fuse. (I think the 85's still used the bullet type fuses). Take out all the fuses, use fine sandpaper, clean the ends and the brackets they fit into, coat the ends of the fuses with silicon (lightly!!) and replace. I had an 82 and this became so common that I left off the fuse cover so I could rotate the fuel pump fuse when the car would not start.
