1993 940 T intermittent stalling when hot

Chris,
Thanks very much for the response. Every time I fix one problem on this car, something else breaks. Been this way for 15 years.

Anyway, Early on I cleaned the throttle body, and Idle control motor.

I knew that I wouldn't get many responses to this problem, because there are 100 different things that it could be. If it ain't broke, you can't fix it! If it would only lock in and stall every time!

Yesterday I also changed the fuel inj. relay with a known good one and changed the AMM with a known good one, both off a good running 240. No change.

Again, it is only when hot (outside temp, and normal running temp). First start in the morning, it starts and idles. I drove it for 3 weeks and it didn't do it at all. But it NEVER does it when cold, and low outside temp.

WhenI had a hole in the blow-off valve, it would stall every time. I had to constantly feather the throttle and brake to drive it. It would stall on start-up, and every other start-up, and would not idle and if I wasn't careful, it would stall in traffic. Fun.
