Engine Mechanical problem
1985 Volvo 240 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive 208K miles

When accelerating, the car stalls, hesitates and sometimes cut out. The idle is fine. It passed California smog test two months ago.

when it stalls, it feels like it choking, or not getting enough fuel so I had the fuel filter changed and added fuel/injector cleaner to the gas, but problem with stalling still exist.

Is there a air filter in this model?

Please advise. your help with be appreciated
