How does it idle when warmed up? How many miles on the odometer? What were the problems that had you replacing parts, and what parts?

Without further info, a wild guess would be an intake gasket. The 960's in US did not arrive until '92. All of these suffered from bad intake gaskets, that seem to fail around 60K-70K miles. A bad gasket has a uneven idle when fully warmed.

Other items to check, fuel pressure regulator, both fuel pumps.

Give us more to go on.
