I have a '93 850 with 161,000 miles and really I love it, it's just got
a bunch of different problems that I'm hoping are common enough, and
can be fixed.  For starters it randomly loses power while I'm driving,
just while I'm going along, it will all of a sudden stop going, and
then when I step on the brakes it stalls.  It starts right back up
after a minute or so, but still this can cause some hefty problems on
the highway.  The second thing is that the accelerator (for lack of a
better term) sticks in the winter if I dont let it warm up for at least
an hour (while we're on that it also takes a really long time to warm
up).  I've taken it to a bunch of places and everyone says it's the
throttle cable and there's nothing they can do.  Is this related to the
throttle linkage problem I keep reading about?  Any insight into these
two problems would greatly help, as I'd really rather fix it and keep
it.
