From time to time, my 1991 Volvo 740 will die temporarily. I will be driving along, and then the engine and all power will simply go off, as if a switch had been thrown. It won't start, won't even turn over (no response at all). After a while, it will start up again and go like nothing's wrong. Immediately afterwards, it has been to a dealership, and to two independent and reputable volvo shops. No one can figure it out. It happens when it's been raining hard, and obviously it's an electrical problem. But the mechanics can't duplicate it, even when soaking the engine intentionally. This first happened a few years ago, but has reoccurred twice this year. Is there anyone out there who is familar with this kind of problem?
