Thanks for the tip re spark plugs, Mark. I'll give that a try soon. I read a post from Dean here not long ago that included a link to a Car and Driver article. Basically, they tested a number of sports sedans using both regular and high test to see if high octane made a difference in performance. The car that showed the biggest difference in performance was the only Saab in the group{a 95}. The computer dialled back performance by 10% when 87 octane was used. I did notice a performance boost after switching to high test again and resetting the computer, but still not back to the way things were when I got the car. Hopefully you are right and the difference is in the plugs. Thanks again.
