However, the OP should check that the engine has the latest modification to the crankcase ventilation system and that the previous owner has changed the oil as recommended (or more often) and used high quality oil. Poor oil, long change intervals and a blocked crankcase ventilation system is bad for the engine. -- G–ran Larsson http://www.nospam.com/saab/
