Good News for rough running cold starts ***With Videos***
Someone posted the other day, that all we do here is post problems about Saabs, so here's a little good news. I was having cold start, rough running issues. The car was running so rough on cold startups, it was throwing a P0340 code. After a couple of minutes, the problem would clear up and the engine would return to running smoothly. Here's video #1 showing the cold start, it's east to see the bad vibrations I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4ya7szSIV0. If I'm correct, P0340 points to the DIC or plugs. I couldn't believe my DIC would be bad with only 11,150 miles and 1.6 years on it. On a whim, I decided to add a couple of bottles of the product, "Heet", in the yellow bottle over the course of a couple of days. To my amazement, the very next day, all of my rough running, cold start issues disspeared, along with my trouble code, here's the second video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuvDcyZfOp0&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL My battery tested bad for 875 CCA, which is why it sounds like it's on it's last leg, but at least the rough running starts have been solved. I must bought some watery gas somewhere along the line.
