I'm not sure, exactly, about '88's, but have you actually looked at
the four lines as they enter the master cylinder? Could be one
of the lines aren't snugged-down? Regardless, I would think
that if the master is bad, it wouldn't be too difficult to find a
replacement. I would search out a small salvage yard if the
'85 differs from the '88. I say 'small' salvage yard because the
larger ones don't like the liabilities involved with selling brake
parts. For example, FoMoCo, which own Greenleaf, and has enough
law-suits to contend with, will not sell anyone, any brake parts.
Even Saab - they will not sell master cylinders for any 9000's in
the US. But I don't think it's for liability reasons - they'd rather sell you the whole ABS pump, accumulator, and master cylinder for close to three grand. The only advice I'd give is find a small salvage yard and buy, if it's available, Saab's factory manual for the ABS.
