Your car's symptoms are consistent with a failing ignition control module. Try swapping it -- it's a square electrical piece bolted to the body under the hood, at the left fender, just behind the turn signal assembly, adjacent to the black EZK box. A used one is fine, just be sure to get one from a NON-turbo.
Here are the cars you can get them from:
Saab: 900 16V non-turbo 86-87, 90-93(and 94 convertible), 9000 16v 2.0 non-turbo 87-89
Volvo: 89-93 240, 740 all 85-92, 760 V6 87-90, 760T 85-90, 780V6 87-90, 780T 87-90, 940 all 91-95.
I doubt it's the coil.
