I think in the Saab book it says to use a 89` ts.
I've got my engine out on my 900S right now and it is spread out all over the garage floor. I picked up a new thermastat (among many other rediculously expensive items) at the local Saab dealer and they recommended a 89` ts. Does anyone have any thoughts on this. It seems to me I recall reading something somewhere about changing the thermostat and putting the turbo ts.(82`) into the non-turbo in the hopes of saving the head gasket(less expansion and contraction if it runs cooler I guess).
Theories?
