1993 940 T intermittent stalling when hot

Hello,
My problem child 940T stalls on start-up when it's at normal temp on hot days SOMETIMES. The hardest problems with anything are the ones that don't lock in, and only happen intermittently. Like when the battleaxe is driving the car. I have driven the car all summer as it is the only one in my fleet of old volvo's that has AC. It has not stalled on me once in the last three weeks on start-up but, as soon as she gets in the car for the first time in weeks, it stalls on her.

Of course, it is my fault when anything isn't working right (yes, she is one of those) and I am catching major crap because it stalled on her 4 consecutive
times today. I can just use the brake and throttle to get it going when this happens but, she has trouble doing that. I had a similar problem when the pop-off valve had a hole in it but it would stall everytime on start-up but this is different because it is only doing it occasionally, and only when the engine is hot and only on start-up Any help is appreciated.
