Right!- Classical 900t problem 90% sure itīs the AIC (automatic idling control) valve together with leaks in the vakuum hoses! Check the air intake pipes carefully (in front of the engine behind the radiatior), search for holes or loose pipe connectors! (air mass meter meteres wrong!!) Sometimes a shot front engine rest is the cause (up/down movement under load, the hydraulic rest is to weak for the engine power and breaks often) So the input signal for the AIC valve is wrong or the AIC sticks - check that!
