I did the same (disconnect the red cable disconnect) for long-term storage when I still lived in Michigan (6 months of winter storage). I recently...
It took me a while to look at my car again, due to business travel, work, family, etc. What I found is that the battery only drains when I leave...
I have verified that is is not the clock, the radio+amplifier, nor the dome and door lights. I’ll check the alternator tomorrow after work. I will...
Thank you all for your suggestions so far. I will check the clock first. It isn't working, but it is electrically connected, so maybe that could...
Good day to you all. This month marks the 10th year of ownership of my beloved 1985 QV and in good old 308 fashion she has presented me with a...
Well, I tried the procedure twice (both the front and the rear twice and alternating) and the light is still on. I’m wondering if I have a problem...
Thank you for the advise! I’ll post a reply when I have fixed it.

I removed the RPM sensor. It is clearly very aged and has some minor cracks in the plastic at the end of the metal strips stop. I get a normal...
Correct. I verified it today. I ran the car until it died. The I unplugged the safety valve and could hear the fuel pump running. When I cranked...
Will try. Mine is an 85 QV also (U.S. though)
Ok. The electrical issue at the ignition switch has been solved, but the engine still suddenly dies after the car gets hot. 1. I pulled the...
Guys, sorry or all the updates, but I think I found the issue (or one of them) . With the ignition key in the "on" position, I felt with my...
I was able to reproduce the problem at home and think the root cause might be with some electrical issues. When the car dies, with the ignition...
It took me a while to get to driving my car again. I changed the fuel filter (just to be sure) and took the car for a drive. It ran fine for about...
