Hi there?
It sounds like the idler solenoid is not working, but most cases this is NOT the problems. The throttle housing gets so durty that it will reduce the amount of the air flowing to the engine and cause the engine to stall.
Cleaning the throttle housing with brake cleaner or throttle cleaner will probably solve the problem.
Good luck.......

Sounds like your idle air control valve is defective, it controls your idle speed, Check around and get the best price you can. check your local auto parts or internet for the best prices.Eary to replace ,if you can operate a screwdriver you should be able to replace it youself..just a couple screws and a wire connection..

Idles irradictly when in drive saab 900s 1995

It sounds like you may have a vacuum leak. A good way to check for a leak is to take a squirt bottle with water in it, and with the engine COLD and the engine at idle, spray some water around where the intake mainifold and the head meet. If the idle changes you found your leak, also spray any vacume hoses. Stay away from the alternater.

The shift pattern is standard 5 speed H: 1st is all the way up to the left, 2nd straight back and down from that, 3rd is up and slightly to the right of 1st, 4th is straight back and down from 3rd, 5th is up and all the way over to the right. Reverse has a reverse lock out collar under the shift knob that you grip with one finger on either side of the bottom of the knob and pull up while pulling back and all the way to the right.
