Because I can't. I have read many times over the years that there is an inherent vibration in 4 cyl inline engines. That is why some of them are now equipped with a variation of the old Mitsubishi "Silent Shaft" feature, which I believe has a couple of shafts rotating at double the crankshaft speed, and the only purpose of which is to mitigate the natural 4 cyl vibration. I believe the Saab 4 cyl has this feature. The 6 cyl does not need and does not have it.
