Thanks to Billofdurham I replaced the kickdown cable successfully, and also cleaned the TB and adjusted the idle accordingly. Hoping this would cure the erratic idling/running of the car.

Re: 740 91 wagon troubles

I found the part from a salvage yard. I had to buy the throttlebody to get it, but it was only $10.

740 91 wagon troubles

Hey guys, new to this site today. I'm also rather new to Volvo, my brother owns a 91 740 n/a wagon auto with approx 220k on the odo. It starts and runs great, there are just some idling issues.
