Right, but we also know that due to a whole bunch of changes Saab made to the 4, they're susceptible to sludging in the 9^5. Also, the '99 LPT4 is painfully slow compared to either the V6 or the Aero.
FWIW I recently had Saab do the "free" 60k V6 belt change, so GM is still honoring it. I added the tensioner and pulleys and it cost me about six-hundred dollars to the otherwise free job. That's almost entirely parts, as the labor is an extra quarter hour. It's certainly worth it, as I'm good to go for years now.
Cheers,
Rick
