Electrical problem
1991 Volvo 240 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive

Just yesterday drove it to the store and it just died in the middle of the street. Had someone jump start it. Drove it for not even a min but wouldn't keep a charge and died again. Let it sit over night and starting it up no problem. Drove it 5 min and died again.
