Hello, hope someone can help, 1998 base S70 sedan.
Up until this afternoon occasional stuttering on accelaration, once a week maybe? very very erratic today, had to shift into neutral to keep engine running, check engine light came on on a rev into 4 k, no on constantly.

Only thing that is new I degrased engine yesterday, very minimal degraser and hose for about 3 min. Car started fine next am and all day until afternoon, bouncing idle at light in drive. then upon green light sputtering, stuttering rest way home, 2 miles.....
any ideas?
I read a bit in posts about ETM ? before 2000 year ? what is that? I can drop at dealer tommorrow am... any advice?
