90 200 intermittent low power solved - finally

[George Selby]

My 90 200 had a problem where on some hot restarts the power would 
drop to levels where the car would barely go 60 miles per hour.  It 
would also exhibit the same symptoms if it hit the boost cutout.

After suffering over 2 years with this problem (I don't drive the 200 
very often, it's more of a spare car) I finally solved the 
problem.  I took the fuel pump relay out of my parts 89 200, and 
stuck it in the 90 200, about 2 months ago.  Since then, no 
intermittent power loss.  I've hit the boost cutout, done hot 
restarts, and every time the power comes back to normal.  My guess is 
internal corrosion in the relay prevented full current passing to the 
fuel pump after the relay was opened then closed.
