Engine kicks!! 1991 240 sedan 200 1991

Well I have had my volvo for about a year and a couple months ago I took it in for its 150,000 mile major service, got the the timing belt replaced and everything. Prior to the service the car ran great but since then it has been kicking. When I am at a stop light sometimes the engine will vibrate every 15 or 20 cycles and sometimes when I start it up it almost dies. So the shop told me the computer was misreading the air and mixing the fuel too rich because of my exaust leaks, so I got that fixed but it continues to run poorly.
recently to try and remedy the problem I replaced the sparkplug wires and put a bottle of cleaner through the fuel system but it still almost stalls and kicks sometimes. If anyone knows what could be wrong let me know.
Could it be My fuel pump?
thanks
