Hot weather stalling. Is this characteristic of these Swedish cars? 200

I have five 240's. An '83 wagon, '86 wagon, '88, '89, and '91 wagon. Even with new spark plugs and wires, filters, intake cleanings, and the like. Even new pumps. They all tend to stall occasionally in hot, hot weather. Stalling at lights. Usually it is a 93 degrees and above and very humid. All have well over 200K miles. All run pretty strong otherwise. My '95 basic 850 wagon never stalls. Knock on wood (my head). Any ideas? I may be alone in this, but I don't think so.
