NG900S stalling

Hi,
I bought myself a 1995 NG900S convertible - I used to have a 2002 9-3 which I loved and I wanted to learn a bit about car maintenance (as I know next to nothing).
Overall, the car is great - obviously it's old and rattles, but for the most part I'm really enjoying it (and I've already learnt a lot in the last four weeks).
But there's a problem that I'm not sure how to solve. When the car starts, cold or warm, it is fine for about a minute. But then it wants to stall, with the revs dropping whenever it idles. If it stalls, it restarts fine, if I can make it through the next five minutes, it then continues to run fine (and you can hear the difference in the engine note). This behaviour is very consistent; in the month I've had it there have been two days where it has not done exactly this.
I've cleaned out the idle air control valve and found a loose hose that I've reconnected (I think it was the crankcase breather) but it's made no difference. And reading the various message boards hasn't given me any inspiration.
So does anyone have any ideas where I should look next?
Thanks in advance
Rahoul
