91 volvo stalls at anytime

Its driving me crazy. i have 91 volvo turbo that will stall at any given moment. Highway , local roads, it dosen't matter. It will drive smooth for a day then stall the next. I have to stop and wait thirty seconds then it will start up fine. I totally lose rpm and engine power, electric is fine. Tried fuel injection cleaner it made problem worse, stalled three times coming home from work.. started up fine next morning drove to work no stalling. Temp guage dances from middle position to low position when idling then stays in low position while on highway. Check engine light comes on for a couple days then turns off. Help me please, no time or money for multiple trips to mechanic. Took it once and mechanic couldnt see anything wrong with the car.

Stalls while driving

Can you be more specific does it happen only on the highway what is the speed is it when accelerating does it happen on other roads, does it start right up after stalling as it seems unlikely that it would just be the highway in order to even try and figure it out more information is required

Stalling problems with 1994 volvo turbo won't go pass 30 miles.

Sounds like the fuel filter is dirty... When have you replaced it last? Possible that the pump is bad but I would start with the filter.

Volvo v40 stalling when idling

If the car shakes and stalls at lights stop signs etc. I would check the egr ( exhaust recirculator valve) first this valve should open when in driving mode and close immediately when engine comes back to idle. to check this find the valve on the intake manifold ( looks like a mushroom) remove vaccuum line and plug hose drive the car and see if it fixes the problem. If it does get one from local parts store. Most brands such as standard are universal and come with baffles that must be installed. do not leave the valve disconnected the engine will "ping" when driving forcing you to buy higher octane gas. It is also illegal to remove this unit for emission reasons.
