I had this exact problem several years ago on my volvo s70 added the big 3 up grade as they call it it and the problem went away

I mama, I lost my ground very common on older cars in the rust belt

Being grounded isn't just a good idea – it's the law (Thanks, Dr. Ohm )

It's interesting that the ground wire from the battery is grounded to the body (under / in front of the battery), on the subframe and on the transmission…but not onto the actual engine itself).

Interesting video. This darn flu. I feel like my body's ground wire is loose. Ha Ha, but it's not funny. :>)
