I live in a small Ukrainian town. My husband-Armenian had leaved me
when I already was pregnant. I am a yard man. My salary is about $50
per month. My daughter grew up as a very nice girl in spite of our
destitution. When she was sixteen my daughter went on the lake near

The rear wiper on my Saab 9000 CS Aero '94 is struggling to work. The motor
runs fine without the wiper on but when attached it really struggles to pull
the blade across the glass. Ant ideas why it is struggling so much?
Also, will it fail the UK MOT if it doesn't pull across ...

Can anyone tell me how to remove the rotor.

This is a 94 Saab (Turbo) AERO 9000 with 125K miles.  I have replaced the
headgasket couple of weeks ago. Since then white smoke (oil burning) comes
out when the car comes to a stop or when it is starting.  The white smoke is
'visible'- so much visible- that a cop stopped me the ...

Anyone know if the new 9-3's have a warning when the washer fluid gets low
(I don't have my manual handy to look it up myself)?  There's no fluid
coming out of the nozzles and they look clear of any gunk that might cause

familiar with the replacement of an alternator in a 1997 900 2.3L
Non-turbo 4cyc. The dealership did an "AVR" test and said it was nearly

I have recently had my clutch replaced in my saab 900i, but over the
past few weeks the gears have been initially sticking but once I'm
driving the gears are fine.  Now I can rarely get it into gear without
grinding, and sometimes whilst driving the gears can be sticky and

Just got a '97 900 Turbo with manual tranny and love the car.
However, the clutch pedal has to go ALL the way down to keep from
grinding gears.  And, the pedal is pretty hard to push in.  I know it's
a year too early for the hydraulic clutch but this is pretty stiff and

Driving home today & my 9-5 unexpectedly stalled at a junction & i couldn't
get it going at all. after a few minutes of repeatedly trying to start the
car, it did fire up, but i had to keep the revs up. the check engine light
came on & stayed on for the rest of my journey home.

The fuel pump on my UK spec 1993 3 door 900 (classic shape) has failed.
Which is a pest, especially as it was 20 minutes before my daughter's
music exam!
This is not wholly unsuprising as the pump has been quite noisy in

I read recently that new saabs are going to contain pontiac parts, that
quality is declining and that GM isn't maintaining the integrity of SAAB
that it had before. Is this the beginning of the end?

There is a rubber hose running from the valve cover to the intake
manifold. t uses rubber gasket to seal the hose fitting and these on
the 84 900 are cracked and leaking.
Any parts sources south of San Francisco and north of San Jose,CA?
