Default Volvo 940s 1992 revs going up and down at idle

Hi guys my volvo 940 estate is dropping revs then goes back up at idle,also it has stalled and gone to stall while braking and changing gear a couple of times.

The last 2-3times i been out in it has been fine although noticed a slight dip in revs at idle,also it did miss a touch while driving along on the times that it did stall as mentioned above,i changed my leads about 5 months ago when it was missing a lot any ideas?

cheers sean

how is your idle speed adjusted?

I actually have a similar issue in mine, but have yet to look into.

My 740 does that as well. I would think that changing the vacuum hoses would fix it. If that doesn't work, I would then try adjusting the throttle line just a little bit. I can't be sure on the throttle so I would wait until you did more research and/or has more replies here from the more experienced.
