I have a '94 850 10V where the car is idling low and cutting out. A
friend suggested that a faulty throttle position sensor is probably the
problem.
I've replaced it with a 2nd hand one. The problem remains.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks
Tony

Always clean the throttle body and idle air valve out first when you have
stalling / low idle / wayward idle problems.
