Thanks for your response. I should start with your first question, which was how did I resolve the vacuum issue. I started by replacing all suspicious hoses as well as ones that looked OK. There are a couple left that have not been changed, however I performed a vacuum test and the pressure was well within the specification. I'm not sure if that means all is well, but I wrote it off as a problem since no leaks were evident from that reading. The aux air valve is new as well as all of the hoses to and from it. However, you mention a lot of other parts that I have been suspicious of for a while, but I am having a hard time with the symptoms which are: rich mixture at variable times, little to no response on acceleration or engine cuts out when pedal is depressed.
Doing the checks that you mentioned above will save me some money if I can locate a problem, however I am curious as to what your symptoms were prior to you fixing your 82T. If my memory serves I belive a vacuum leak causes a lean condition. Is this correct?
Anyway, there is a shop around the corner from me that can do a pressure test for me. I'll take it there next week and see what they come up with. They work on saabs a lot, however it's not my saab mechanic, he's too far away considering the current drivability of my car.
