Hello everyone, So after many many years of delaying my fuel filter change (I think I last changed it in '07 or '08), I decided to do so yesterday. Mostly because I saw what happened on my brother's '01 9-5 (just rusted bits and started leaking gas). On mine, the banjo bolts and fittings...

Hello Everybody, I'm new to this forum, I own a 2002 Saab 93 2.2 TiD 125Hp that has around 230K km (almost 150k miles dunno what kind of units you use...) I do most of the things I can do on my own on the car, and recently, after a diesel filter change (under the car right next to the right...

Over the weekend I tried to replace the fuel filter in my 2007 9-3. The new fuel filter that I bought is for a 2003 - 2011 Saab 9-3. I looked up how to do it in my Haynes manual. I releived the fuel pressure, jacked up the back of the car, supported it, and slid up under there. What I saw...

Hi Folks, My car is not idling well so I thought I'd start with a new fuel filter but I can't find it. There seem to be many vague and varied references but nthing specific I can find. I know some countries don't have an inline filter, not sure about Australia I've looked by the tank and see...

Having completed the fuel filter replacement, the greatest difficulty was removing and replacing the plastic cover to access the filter. During removal, I used a 10mm ratchet to the plastic cover nuts and one of them (the one closer to the filter) simply broke off along with the threading that...

Hi guys, My name is Calvin; I'm 15, and for a number of reasons bought a classic 900 for my first car. It's a 1992 900 hatchback, base model. I just completed an oil pump removal and installation in order to replace the oil pump seal and the crankshaft seal, and the two alternator belts and...

OK, fuel filter was WAY overdue for replacement. Installed a new one, making sure the direction of flow was correct... Now car wont start. Does the system have to be primed? Or just leave the key on for a period of time for the fuel pump to fill system? Dead in driveway and only car - so...

2 weeks ago I got rear ended at a stoplight in Charlotte (about 25 miles from home) by a Mitsu Montero Sport. I was stopped, they were stopped, and apparently, they thought the light had turned green... I had not moved. Banged up the bumper and liftgate, destroyed a parking sensor, and...

Hi Guys hoping you can help me out here. Have a 900 turbo that has started to judder while driving. I am fairly sure this is fuel related as it feels like the engine just isnt getting enough. It will then run OK for a while. It has on occassion cut out/stalled when stopping but it is not...

Any and all help is appreciated! I had a scare today, after the flakey gas gauge threw me off (told me I had a quarter tank, when I had NOTHING!) Ran out of gas, had to walk two miles to buy a 2 gal can, fill it and sit and wait and hope that was the problem. 115k on the car and I need to do...

I seem to have found a couple different model numbers for fuel filters for the saab 900. Can somebody tell me which part(s) I can use with my car? I saw somebody mention a 401 and 601 part, and saying the 601 was larger, but I don't know if that applies to my car.

My 2.3t aut 9-5 99 chokes off on start up... recently since its been getting cold, used to do it in the really hot days also. Its got 123000 on it. I was thinking fuel filter maybe? I just changed the plugs so I know those are fine. The fuel filter is an original I think.... Also if i'm idling...

my 2000 93 turbo won't start. it is inconsistent. here is the scenario- disclaimer: yes, it does have the neutral position switch problem, but i found that moving the car, or moving the shifter from park to other settings and back solves this issue - at least temporarily. doing so is prompted...
