When I hit big bumps on the highway I get a hesitation in my 1980 245. I think maybe one of the engine wiring harnesses needs replacement. When I looked in my Haynes manual I did not see much about the steps involved. How extensive is the replacement process for the home mechanic? Which harness should be replaced? Any suggestions on a source of parts other than the local Volvo dealer? Thx.
You should check out Dave Barton's web site as a source for the wiring harness,
I have also seen them on ebay occasionally.
It's not a difficult job, especially with the diagrams that Dave sends along with the harness. I chose to remove the intake manifold and do a bit of cleaning and maintainence at the same time. Check out Dave Shannon's site for his how-to on replacing the harness.
