viggen pistons Posted by MTAERO [Email] (#2408) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MTAERO) on Sun, 24 Oct 2004 09:47:27 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I was at an independent saab warranty repair center in Missoula, Mt and there is a 2000 yellow viggen on the rack getting new pistons. Three of the origional were cracked. This is the second Viggen He has done, The other required a new engine. To add to this list my, 99 Viggen will be coming apart soon for its piston/ring problems.
I beleive these three are the only Viggens in Montana, 100% failure is pretty dismal.
The technician felt the pistons were not at fault but was questioning malfunctions in other components, air mass meter? fuel injection system? ect...
Has there been any clues to the cause of the piston problems in Viggens?
