I have a 1984 900 GLE (Australian) fuel injected (non turbo). It's been a great car for the 21 years I've owned it and looked after perfectly. Over the last year the engine will intermittently stop. Often happens whilst driving. First it loses power and you are foreced to stop where it will idle only. Press the throttle and it splutters and gasps. Then eventually it won't even idle and stops completely. Repeated attempts to start it don't work. Then all of a sudden after a few minutes to an hour it will start again and run perfectly. Occasionally it will happen from start in the morning but very often after it's warmed up. It may happen more in damp weather but certainlyt doesn't need a big soaking. It has been to my Saab dealer countless times where they can't get it to repeat the problem. They have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter, plug leads, cold start unit. Can anybody offer any suggestions? Pete
