Exhaust pipe rubbed on the fuel tank and melted a hole, patched it up with
caulk but I want to replace the tank. No go at the local salvage yard, they
had a couple 9000's but no 900s.

The a/c compressor has failed on my 1999 93s. Replacement cost about a grand
installed per my a/c tech. I see a 1995 95 a/c compressor for sale on ebay.

whether it was LPT or FPT but other visitors had said it was full, but
have a look at his website for better photos.
I did, and I'm less than impressed.

I just had my 2001 93 SE in for 50K service and a new DI unit (yes i
manged to hit my 4 years in November so this wasnt covered).
The technician must have had to move the cable to the fan during

Heard an unusual and alarming noise as I finished my 40 mile drive to work

everything over. She's noticed a drop in gas mileage ...

I've been picked to replace them for her.  I just want to know what kind of
job I'm gettng myself into, and what tools I might want to have handy other
than the trusty metric and star socket sets.

The check engine light comes on intermittently.  After a few annoying
months, I had the codes read and it pointed to the catalytic converter.  But
I can't see the catalytic converter going bad after 50 k miles.  Also, the
light goes off for a few days and then comes on again.

Someone took two of my valve stem caps recently.  The caps weren't fancy,
just the plain metal ones that came with the car.  How pathetic do you
have to be to steal value stem caps?  And why stop at two when there are
four for the taking!?  Not only was the person (or persons, ...

My white 1983 Saab 900S needs some attention to it's decaying paintwork. The
