refuses to idle S70

Does the check engine light come on at all? The orginal Volvo battery probably is on its way out; is there corrosion accumulating on the terminals? Since the negative has much to do with the grounding of the system, replace the battery, and clean and tighten everything, AFTER checking for and reading any codes...since replacing the battery will erase them. Yes, the throttle body could be questionable...but you usually get warning lights...

Hope this helps,

Chris
