I've got a 240 I just aquired and it took us a long time to discover the little ground strap was broken on what they call the impulse sensor. (magnetic pickup in the distributor) . I've found the entire part for around $115, but all that's wrong is the ground strap. I took a little peice of tin foil and used a paper clip to tie it to the original strap for a test, and the car fired right up.

Is there a way to repair/extend this ground strap without spending $100???

Some Auto Parts stores sell the module in the dist that you can replace.

Well so far other than the volvo dealer locally, I've only found the part at napa for $113 plus shipping. Got any suggestions on who might sell the module alone?
