Preventive Maintenance Recommendations

I have just gone through a nightmare stalling issue with my 1993 850 that turned out to be a vacuum leak I didn't notice. Since I am in love with this car and will drive it for as long as I can I have decided I am just going to start replacing things once or twice a month even if they don't need it ...

1993 850 coming from wrong port.

All of my codes are coming out of A3 but according to the charts none of the codes should come out of A3. It's this a problem?

1993 Volvo 850 air intake hose too tight.

Should the air intake take hose slide smoothly on to the throttle body or do you have to really work to get it on?

Engine cuts out after start. 1993 Volvo 850 non turbo

OK, apologies ahead of time about the length I don't know how to explain it. I was putting on a new intake hose and the small hose coming of the fire trap fell apart. I got a new hose and to the best of everything I can learn it's supposed to go to the nipple on the passenger side intake manifold ...
