1993 9000. 124,000 miles.
I'd like to see a list of why SAAB 9000 folks get completely stranded. It will help me plan for longer trips. It happened to me twice this summer. Here's why?
1. Tensioner pulley on main belt failed 350 miles from home on a Friday afternoon at 4:30. ($80 parts).
2. Check valve on fuel pump failed in a rural area, 50 miles from the nearest SAAB dealer, and I could not get the fuel line on the check valve once I got the part to me. ($7.50 part).
Had I known this might have happened, I would have added these parts to my inventory and learned how to install them.
Thanks for any additions to the list. I think I could increase the reliability of my car by knowing about the things that might make me be stranded.
