DIC impending failure?

The Mrs. calls to let me know the CEL has illuminated. Get the car home, pull out the laptop and OpCom. I read the classic P1334 and P1312 codes. The car is a late '04 with 137,000 on it. Could it be the original Ignition Cassette (DIC)? Everything I read says they only last about 60 - 80,000 miles although maybe the later ones are better.
I have a spare Saab OEM SEM 3.7 I got on eBay in the basement that I'll install tonight. The plugs are the correct ($10) NGKs from eEuroparts. I installed them 20,000 miles back. I'll order a new DIC and plugs tonight and run the spare until it comes in. I hear too many horror stories about impending DIC failure to dally with this.
