Word of mouth around me has it that means a bad charcoal canister. I call it GM emissions syndrome because whatever causes it they seem to occur to two year old Chevy Cadavers very frequently. Now to be fancy, Saab has to call it an evaporative loss control device. Whatever it is, it's a black cylinder with fuel vent/vacuum lines running out of it inside your left front fender ahead of the wheel arch. They also tell me overfilling your fuel tank too many times will kill it in short order.
Advice: I have never experienced this on a Saab, so get a better opinion than mine. I'm just passing along advice I've heard.
