There's a VERY good FAQ on brickboard.com

but I would guess your hesitation issue is a dirty throttle body. Volvo engines ARE known for requiring frequent cleaning of the throttle body.
Seems the butterfly/TB throat gets clogged with goo (because volvo bleeds the pcv gases into the intake system ahead of the butterfly) and although the AIC maintains idle speed through a separate hose around the butterfly, when you come off the idle stop (you DID adjust the butterfly/idle stop/idle switch properly rather than use the idle stop to adjust idle, right?) their may be hesitation.
