Hi Rodel (from Edmonton to Calgary)... Would you happen to have that Bosch part number for the universal part? I'm assuming that the universal you used would fit "universally" in my 85 900T as opposed to your 87 SPG. I just went to a local Part Source dealer and they said that Bosch doesn't have a universal sensor (particularly mine which was manufactured 09/84). Very strange to me. The part that I have found that seems to fit my Saab is Bosch part # 13009. Thanks for the advice.
