Try it out. There's a tradeoff between performance and fuel grade and fuel of a too low octane can cause engine knock under load which can be damaging. Is it a plain 900 (ie non-turbo)? If so, you can probably go ahead. I certainly did with my old '86 900 Carb version and still do with my '92 900S light-pressure turbo version. The injected versions usually have some kind of knock sensor which adjusts performance to suit the fuel. -- Conor Daly conor.NOSPAM.dalynopsamie Stu McIntire wrote in message <855nl6$ape$1nopsamnews.rcn.net>... >When I bought my 1995 Saab 900, the salespeople told me that the world would >come to an end if I ever used less than premium gas.
