I have a '92 900, naturally aspirated w 173k miles. It runs fine apart from some slightly warm readings on the thermo which result in the check engine light going on and off after being stuck in stp-n-go traffic for a while. My main concern is now that I live in an area with emission control requirements to get tags from the DMV, my little Saab has pass the DEQ and it has failed 5 times in one week. They say my hydrocarbons are too high and the NoX is just a tad too much also. I added this fuel additive that is supposed to guarantee to make it pass, but after a half tank used it still hasn't helped. I changed the oil and also flushed the radiator (because if the C.E. light comes on you automatically fail). I don't know what else to do and I need some expert advice. PLEASE HELP!

- tune-up and an 02 sensor are a good start. /NM, Devin
