I have had the same problem. It was the fuel pump. They will sometimes "fail soft" and give you lower than needed pressure without failing completely. Save yourself some time and money ad replace it now before you have to get a tow

According to the post you lose recirc. but I think my unit still runs better with the recirc button on. Just proves that I have only enough knowledge of this system to be dangerous.

I pulled the yellow hose off the back of the only two sided actuator on the left side of the car, and plugged it with a screw. To be fair, this did not completely solve the problem, but it was a 90% fix.

Passing along a tip I just used.
I know this is a known problem on these cars, and a complete fix often involves replacing of a vacuum actuator under the dash, $75 for the part and LOTS of time.
I found this work-around that resolved the problem with $0 and 15 minutes (standing on my head under the ...

Buy a replacement. These things are installed with the fan bearing at the lowest part of the system. If any moisture/condensation gets into the ventwork, it eventually settles to the bearing on the blower fan. This bearing will eventually fail. A new unit will not solve the problem, but it should be ...

The purpose of the heater core is to transfer engine heat (that is outside the firewall!) to cabin air. (inside the firewall) If you hang the HC on a bracket inside the engine compartment, how are you going to transfer heat to the cabin of your car? If you do not need heat (for example you live in ...

25k since tune up. I do plugs and filters and dist. cap and rotor every 30k. A bit lax w/tire pressure, but I do rotate and balance every 2nd oil change, I do those every 4500-5000 miles, regular dino oil. Presently 245k, needs front shocks. The car regularly gets about 25 mpg at 65-70 mph. I just ...

I haven't posted anything in a while so I thought I would share this with the crowd.
Last Monday night I drove my 92 740 NA wagon from Spring Hill TN down to Florence Al. 96 miles The weather was nice, about 71F, with little wind. I don't trust my fuel gauge, so I keep a close eye on the miles I ...

This may not apply, but I had similar symptoms with a 93 940 Regina. It turned out my fuel pump (there is only one on the Regina) was not supplying enough pressure to the system. It would idle fine, and it would cruise alright, but it really did not like to accelerate. After doing most of what you ...

I would replace the motor mounts before U joints. At 437K miles, U joints were fine, 3rd set of motor mounts.
