Group:
On '98 S90 with 160K miles, there is an occasional delay on acceleration.
Step down and nothing happens for a few seconds.
Still an occasional thing, but dangerous if the car behind thinks I'm accelerating from a stoplight.
More frequent recently with weather at 20-25 degrees F.
Car has a new evap valve but cannister is probably bad, but I do not think that has anything to do with it. Too cold to work on it right now.

I do not have code reader, but can get them read by the local Volvo independent.

Any ideas of where to start?

Thanks,
Sixvolvos
