I have a erratic miss in the engine.

Engine has 190,000 on it

This is a list of new parts:

Plug Wires - 30,000 miles on them
Plugs- Bosch - Gap 0.28
Ignition Cap & Rotor - IPD
Air Filter - IPD
Oil Trap - Flame Trap - All Lines
Throttle Body - Cleaned

Fuel Injectors Professionally Cleaned - www.witchhunter.com
All new seals/o-rings for it.

Service Light - Not coming on.

I used dielectric grease in the connections on: Fuel Injection connectors, Throttle Positioning Sensor, Idle Control Pump

Anything that I am missing?

It could be anything.

I don't see a new fuel filter listed.

It could be the type of Bosch plugs used.

30k on a set of ignition wires could mean they're starting to break down internally, especially if not routed correctly [rubbing, heat. etc...].

I found these issue:

Volvo has stated in a TSB that when you battery is disconnected for a long time, it takes a while for the brain in the car to relearn.

Soon, I took it for a short drive, with several slow speed stops, then a faster, longer drive....

And it learned, the missing went away. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And another false alarm, that was.
